Departing from Lège-Cap-Ferret, this trail runs along a wild and winding section of the "Canal des Etangs", before returning by the GR8. This canal, built in the 19th century, made it possible to connect the Médoc ponds to the Arcachon basin, and thus to drain a vast area and to plant it with pines.
