MTB (autonomously)
The resort offers a mountain biking area made up of 2 circuits of 9 and 18 km.
These "family" circuits with very low elevation, allow you to discover the surroundings of the body of water and the surrounding preserved natural areas which should be respected.
For the bravest, the 18 km peacefully runs along the banks of the Charente for several kilometers and catches up with the cross section of the Tour Charente VTT to reach the finish point.
Possibility to rent bikes at the reception of the sailing base.
