Sentier Détours N°1 – Breuillet

Our towns and villages conceal many treasures... which are often ignored or avoided, hidden alongside the routes we take, far from the "direct" routes.

In the peninsula of Arvert, between Seudre and Gironde a few kilometers from the ocean, Breuillet, whose name would have a Celtic origin meaning "grove" or "small wood", has preserved many wooded and classified sites and s extends over a hilly plateau facing south towards the St Augustin marsh and north towards the Seudre.

The proposed walk invites you to discover the heart of the town of Breuillet, its outlying villages and its main localities. Rich in a preserved natural environment, the circuit invites you to crisscross the gentle marshes of Saint-Augustin, populated by original flora and a very present birdlife.
