Bike hire companies

In Seignosse, there are plenty of bike hire shops – some are seasonal on the ocean side, whilst another is open all year round in the village. Whatever the time of year, we recommend that you book your bikes in advance, before you arrive. You can hire standard bikes, electric city bikes, and also the famous, stylish fat bikes with their big tyres! The bike hire shops also offer accessories such as bike trailers, baskets, child seats and so on…

The bike hire company ‘Les Vélos de Pilou’ also offers two-hour guided fat-bike tours to explore the forest and the beach at low tide.

VIRA & VASA

THE BIKE TREASURE HUNT

Vira and Vasa are two mischievous little characters who will guide you, using your phone, through the different stages of an audio tour to explore Seignosse.

Download the Vira & Vasa app, then select the Seignosse trail and listen to the first audio episode with your family. Let yourselves be guided from the village to Penon beach as you solve the puzzles. This trail is best done by bike (a 10km return journey from the village).

You’ll find other walking trails in the app covering neighbouring towns, particularly Hossegor.

THE VÉLODYSSÉE

OUR FLAGSHIP ITINERARY

The Vélodyssée is a European cycle route, EuroVelo 1, which starts in Tromsø, Norway, and ends in Sagres, Portugal. The section in France runs from Roscoff in Brittany to Hendaye in the Basque Country. In the Landes region, the route runs alongside all the coastal towns.

The Vélodyssée therefore crosses the town of Seignosse from north to south; it comes from Vieux Boucau, passes the Tourist Office on its way to Penon Beach, and continues towards Hossegor via Bourdaines and Estagnots beaches. It is a wonderful greenway, sheltered from traffic, where you’ll come across cyclists, skateboarders, joggers and pedestrians.
