Mios, fun and environmentally friendly activities in Gironde

The Eyre river which crosses the town of Mios offers an ideal setting for getting away from it all. Swimming lovers will be delighted to embark on a canoe or a kayak for a descent on what is called the little Amazon for its natural diversity. Many boat rental sites offer a subtle and pleasant experience of discovering nature, such as T sur Leyre in the heart of Mios. Hiking and biking are also popular in this preserved area where flora and fauna evolve with the seasons. After the effort, comfort. Go and quench your thirst at the guinguette called chez Po'potes, a place of sharing and conviviality open on sunny days, where many jazz and rock festivals are organized during the summer. The day continues at Lakecity, a 12-hectare leisure base where you can practice water sports and have fun in the aquapark. It's your turn, come and get away from it all.

Mios in the heart of the Bassin d'Arcachon, a natural escape in Gironde

The Heart of the Bassin d'Arcachon is the maritime facade of the Landes de Gascogne Regional Natural Park, represented by 5 municipalities.

Lanton, Biganos, Mios, Audenge and Marcheprime, located between the Arcachon basin and the Cap Ferret peninsula, are connected by the coastal path which leads to their 6 ports. Between land and sea, enjoy unspoiled nature that evolves with the rhythm of the tides, a nugget of the Gironde region. A sylvotherapy session teaches you to connect with the forest through sensory walking and mindful meditation, an approach with many benefits. The ecotourism set up allows you to enjoy activities while respecting the fauna and flora, unique in this part of the region. This is the case of the eau'thentique walk in the dragonfly zone, a space where the water from the treatment plant is filtered by minerals, plants and solar photons. Renowned for its dunes and beaches, the Cœur du Bassin d'Arcachon delights visitors with its diversity and colorful landscapes. Escape to the sweetness of the sea air, it feels good.
