“Les collines du Born” is a 17.3 km route with two loops that begins in the hilltop village of Le Born.

Culture and History

The Église Sainte-Foy is built entirely of brick, dates from the 14th century and was remodelled in the 17th and 20th centuries. Inside, the keystones of the vaults bear a coat of arms from 1682; the choir is decorated with chamfered arches and columns with floral or figurative capitals. The church also has a fortified façade with false machicolations. A staircase to the dovecote bell tower is located in a round tower at the south-eastern corner.

The airport can be reached from Le Born via the D14 and the A62 in approximately 35 to 40 minutes.
