Gacholle Lighthouse

Highlight • Monument

At the lighthouse of Gacholle you will find information about the nature reserve Camargue. The tower is not managed, so bring a picnic and vespern on the wind-protected tables by the lighthouse. There are postcards and water to buy.

Spot to see pink flamingos

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Between Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer and Salin-de-Giraud, this dike that crosses the Camargue ponds is a magnificent place to immerse yourself in nature. The pink flamingos that you can see are the best proof of this.

Hey everyone, it's hard to describe what's going on here in the Camargue. Everywhere wide land, sea and flamingos. I was able to cycle many miles along the surf line. Just genius. A short tour of the city then culminated on the church roof. Unique experiences here in the Camargue.

Very easy route with no difference in altitude... It must be said that we are in the Camargue 😂 😂. Superb paths, a superb lighthouse, lots of birds, water on both sides with something crazy at the end, Beauduc 10kms of beach where the sea has receded... It's beautiful, it's 'is unusual. A great pleasure 👍👍👍.

In paradise there was no GPS in between 😂 5 km not recorded and 5 km/h embezzled 🫣

This was planned as a 45km loop. However, the return route was closed due to bird breeding season. The alternative route was a dead end interrupted by a creek.
Wide tires and good suspension are helpful.
