Tremblade

Loop

This loop north of the Coubre forest is dedicated exclusively to equestrian practice and is marked with marks standardized by the FFE.

Autumn, Summer, Winter, Spring

4 car parks for unloading horses - direct access to the paths identified on the network of equestrian trails: Ronce-les-Bains, line 21 on the D25, Vermont on the D268 and line 42 on the D25. These 4 access areas are equipped with a desk presenting the general map of the equestrian trails as well as their location. At each of these 4 access zones or horse rest areas, 2 lines of attachment bars are also installed in order to best secure the stop at the start, return or stage of the hike.

It is also prudent to consult the tide times in order to access the beach at low tide (+/- 2 hours before and after).

The use of equestrian circuits in the La Coubre national forest is strongly discouraged on hunting days, i.e. every Monday and Thursday (except public holidays) from September 1 of year N to February 28 of year N+1 .

Access to the beaches is regulated by municipal decree of the municipality of La Tremblade!

Between the Atlantic forest and the beaches of the wild coast, this loop ride offers total immersion in the maritime atmospheres of the Arvert peninsula. The sandy soils, passable all year round, offer optimal conditions for uphill hiking. Equestrian halts equipped with attachment bars are available at the starting points (parking along the RD 25 at the level of the forest line n°21 or at the edge of the RD 268 at the level of the line n°33).

The circuit is signposted to equestrian standards, the markup marks affixed to the paint on the trees are specific to horseback riding (orange color). They indicate the directions to follow or to avoid (cross), the horizontal line is a staking mark giving the route to follow. Marking is done in both directions. At the start of the circuits and when crossing large trenches, a green and white sign representing a "foot in the stirrup" indicates more visibly the direction to take.

Riders and hikers take care to adopt a behavior that respects nature, existing equipment and other users, in accordance with the charter for walkers in the forest. Courtesy is a guarantee of successful cohabitation and better security.

So practitioners:
- follow the marked paths that make up the itinerary
- respect forest property (fauna, flora, dune and soil included)
- do not smoke in the forest
- leave no waste on the sites
