Pines, pines and more pines. The Landes forest closes in on you from both sides. The paths run perfectly straight and the ground is soft underfoot with fallen needles. The landscape barely changes, and that is exactly its charm. Sunlight falls in stripes between the trunks, and mostly all you hear is your own footsteps.
There are no hills today. In about four hours of walking, your legs find their own rhythm and your thoughts begin to wander. Slowly the first houses of Labouheyre come into view, and before you know it you have arrived. It is a short day, so you have time for a relaxed afternoon. Just make the most of it.
