Water and Nature
The 10 km canoe route La Leyre between Pont de Cantegrit and Pont de la Forge begins in Trensacq. The average duration is three hours, and the difficulty level is moderate.
The 10 km section of the Grande Leyre between Cantegrit and La Forge is considered one of the most remote and wildest stretches of river. Algae and royal ferns can be found there; the route is also characterized by tight bends and trees leaning over the water.
The Leyre is classified as a Class 1 river. Branches may pose a risk of entrapment, and swimming skills are required. When navigating the river, a life jacket and closed-toe footwear are mandatory.
Paths Through the Valley
Along the valley, you can walk, ride horses and go mountain biking. The valley formed in wind-deposited sand from continental dunes.
From Trensacq, you can follow the Leyre on a three-day hike to its mouth in the Bassin d’Arcachon.
Culture
The church of Trensacq dates from the late 16th century and is considered a place for quiet visits.
Three kilometres from Trensacq, a road branches off to the left. After another two kilometres, a marked path leads through a remarkable wooded area to the Fontaine Saint Eutrope before descending to the Grande Leyre. It consists of a wooden structure with an engraved plaque, votive offerings and a wooden cross.
