About the location

Parc de la Chêneraie

6 Avenue du Maréchal de Lattre de Tassigny, 33470 Gujan-Mestras

Gironde
Nouvelle-Aquitaine

This park allows to discover the richness of plants that developed around this Napoleonic channel (including some cork oaks) and to admire the clear waterfalls of the old locks destroyed during the war. The Landes Canal is an artificial route, remnant of Vauban, which should have made it possible to connect the Arcachon Basin to Bayonne through the Landes ponds.
