Tips from the Community
Several improvements have been made to the crossing of the Saint Pierre du Mont nautical base: The step at the entrance to the area on the east side (Mont de Marsan) has been rectified: a stabilized inclined section has been created. At the level of the swimming lake, the route has been modified: it is no longer necessary to go around the swimming area and venture onto the initial chaotic "single". You can now reach the west exit (Dax side) directly - while keeping your bike in hand. The signage has been updated. The crossing, however, remains unsuitable for bikes with thin tires.

To see: the Benedictine abbey, the convent, the Jacobins museum, the Butte de Morlane and its arenas.

Unfortunately, although on the EV 3-Scandiberian European route, the crossing of the nautical base of St Pierre du Mont offers a surface unworthy of such a course: ruts, sand and pebbles… this is what you will find under your wheels. This is very unfortunate because the site is pleasant, shaded and suitable for swimming. There is no question of asphalting the crossing but a bit of smoothing would be greatly appreciated, especially by busy cyclists.

This old railway line has been converted into a very cool greenway for the hot summer days. Please note that the greenway is not paved, it is not recommended to take it by road bike.

To leave Saint-Sever, this small road descends to take you to the heart of Chalosse.

This small road guides you from the exit of Saint-Sever to Haut-Mauco, it is little frequented and very pleasant. You slowly enter Chalosse.

This small pond is an ideal place to take a refreshing break on hot days. There is something to walk around and something to play for children.

A picturesque village that is worth the detour. There are also plenty of cafes and bakeries if you need to stock up.
