An easy route, accessible to all cyclists.

The Canal de Garonne stretches for some 193 km – and the stretch around Toulouse is particularly well-suited to leisurely strolls.

The stage between Castelnau-d’Éstrétefonds and Toulouse is around 23 km long, on a virtually flat cycle path, with very little difference in altitude (0 to 31 m). The “voie verte” surface and layout make it an accessible route for families, beginners and occasional cyclists.
