At the heart of the “Entre-deux-Mers” (Between-two-Oceans), not far from the Garonne and the Dordogne rivers, the “Créonnais” is a wonder of nature, boasting beautiful landscapes such as vineyards, woods and hillsides. You can travel through this green setting, just 25km away from Bordeaux, by foot, bicycle or on horseback, with friends or family.
You can also take the old railway track, transformed into a cycling track and discover true bliss amongst nature. In Créon, the “number one bicycle relay station in France”, has become the “girondine queen” of bike riding breaks.
Heritage treasures are also to be discovered such as: Créon’s 14th century fortified town, La Sauve Majeure’s abbey (a UNESCO monument), the “Oh ! Légumes Oubliés” (“Oh ! Forgotten Vegetables”) museum, and many others …
Fancy visiting a wine cellar and wine tasting? The winegrowers will happily welcome you at their estate. Make sure, you don’t miss numerous animations, celebrations, activities and events that take place year round in the “Créonnais”.
The “Créonnais” Tourist Office is placed on the “Roger Lapébie” bicycle track at Créon’s old railway station, right next to the bicycle relay station. You’ll find all the information you need to prepare for your stay in the region.
