Cycle paths in Hossegor

The Landes department makes the most of its "gentle" geography to promote cycling and cycle paths. And in this respect, Hossegor is a star pupil. You can easily spend a holiday in Hossegor without a car thanks to the "Vélo à Hossegor" scheme, which lets you kit out the whole family on the spot. It then becomes easy to explore the town centre, head to the beach or ride along the pretty shaded roads that follow the coast, even with children.

From Vieux-Boucau-les-Bains to Capbreton on the Vélodyssée

After enjoying the charm of Vieux-Boucau and its sweeping ocean views, the Vélodyssée takes you through the Soustons forest and along the coast, passing through authentic Seignosse and past the pretty seaside villas of Hossegor, before finally reaching Capbreton. There, you will probably set your bike aside to quench your thirst and enjoy the buzz of the department's only fishing port.

In Capbreton, especially on market day, you will delight in the quality of the local produce and the sweetness of life. Continuing your ride along the coast, you will understand why the Landes sands make this a region renowned for its golf courses, playable all year round with sea views (Moliets, Hossegor and Seignosse). You will see that festivity is a cornerstone of Landes culture. Along the way, don't miss a stop to enjoy a traditional course landaise in Soustons or to share lovely moments in a bodega.
