This walk is a very popular "best seller". It allows you to discover the vast coastline of La Rochelle which extends on both sides of the Old Port to the west and south!
The walk starts in the western part of La Rochelle with its Old Port and its emblematic towers, its ramparts, and then its "plage de la concurrence" which is reached by passing behind the city walls and a small wooden bridge full of charm which spans the old moat. From the beach of the competition the stroll continues on a promenade which overhangs the sea and leads you to the park of Orbigny. You can then appreciate the splendid view on the channel of the Old Port...
This is the enchanting setting of this first part of the tour.
Then direction the south of La Rochelle passing by the district of La Chaîne and the Old Port to better appreciate once again the atmosphere and the towers, direction the Gabut, an old wooden fishermen's district located between the 2 banks of La Rochelle.
Then you can walk along the channel of the Old Port with a splendid view on the towers and the entrance of the Old Port.
The trip continues along the Minimes harbor, the largest marina in Europe, before reaching the Pointe des Minimes, its sandy beach and its unavoidable panorama of the Lighthouse of the End of the World, the islands of Aix and Oléron and its Fort Boyard which stands proudly between the two ... a change of scenery guaranteed!
A unique experience reinforced by the sensations provided by the Segway gyropod, a soft and playful way of moving that allows you to take full advantage of the exceptional panoramas and varied landscapes that this tour offers.
To fill up with emotions and unforgettable memories...a MUST!
