TO THE SOUTH

section-banner-top

Heading south towards the Adour Valley

A GREAT START!

En route to the South to discover “Slow” activities and walks in the fresh air!

A proposal of outdoor activities with the Velorail and exotic walks at the Palmeraie du Sarthou!

In the Adour valley, get some height and admire the Pyrenees from the top of the Tour de Termes before tasting the fine Côtes de Saint-Mont wines at the Chai des Vignerons de Saint-Mont.

Good walking!

Here we go!

step 1

The Velorail

An original idea for a ride that everyone can enjoy!

West of the Gers in Gascony, in Nogaro, the Vélorail de l’Armagnac is the ideal activity to enjoy with family or friends.

Board a revisited “pedalo” equipped with electric assistance, and explore the Gers countryside on a semi-wooded route.

Built on one of the first railroad lines in Gers, created in 1875, the Vélorail takes you on a tour of the Armagnac, Floc and Côtes de Gascogne vineyards.

step 2

La Palmeraie du Sarthou

Come and recharge your batteries in this verdant setting for a complete change of scenery.

An original experience to be enjoyed in the Gers in this oasis classified as a Remarkable Garden. A stroll through the garden invites you on an initiatory journey where art and nature, change of scenery and adventure mingle.

Set off for an escape as you discover collections of exotic plants, exhibitions of sculptures by contemporary artists, an exhibition of African art, an authentic old Gascon farm and its animals. The rest of the walk in the park offers relaxation and serenity.

step 3

The Tower of Termes

La tour de Termes, plunge into the heart of medieval history!

Located in the southern Gers, in the center of the St-Mont appellation, the Tour de Termes has stood proudly silhouetted on a hillside overlooking the Arros and Adour valleys since the late 13th century. Put on the historical costume of your choice for a tour of the medieval keep, and set off in search of the lives of our ancestors, just as devoted knights would have set off in search of the Grail.

At the top of the Tower, enjoy an exceptional panorama over the Adour valley and the Pyrenees mountain range.

Le Chai de Saint-Mont

Come and discover the wines of southwestern Gers!

The winegrowers of Plaimont Producteurs offer wines in AOC Saint Mont, Madiran, Pacherenc du Vic Bilh and IGP Côtes de Gascogne.

For over 30 years, Plaimont Producteurs winemakers have been passionately promoting their wines at major events such as Saint Mont Vignoble en fête.
