Garonne River

The Garonne runs for about 525 kilometres, starting in Spain before moving to France, where it crosses Toulouse and ends up by flowing into the estuary of the Gironde. In Toulouse, the river is fully navigable, and is popular with tourist boats as well as water sports vehicles. A path runs along the Garonne, allowing you to enjoy the views of the river and the entire city. You can start at Pont Saint Pierre, then stroll past the Raymond VI gardens to the Pont des Catalans, where you can cross to the other side of the river. A really pleasant walk, which I always recommend to newcomers to the city!
