Excursion Relaxed hike in the margaux vineyards tour at Bordeaux

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Take a pleasant morning hike in the Margaux vineyards, a stunning landscape best enjoyed on foot. Departing the pier, drive 45 minutes to the southernmost part of the Médoc area, starting at the location of the famous "Route des Châteaux." The Médoc wine road, known locally as Route des Châteaux, is situated between the Gironde estuary and the Landes Forest and provides magnificent views of vine-covered hills as far as the eye can see.


Médoc vineyards are orderly and well-kept almost to the point of fanaticism, and the region's famous chateaux produce wines that are nothing short of divine: Moulis, Listrac, St. Julien, St. Estèphe, Pauillac, Margaux. View this orderliness from a distance and see the beauty of the many vineyards blending into a tapestry of rows and hills.


Today, you will start your walk from beautiful Château Marquis de Terme through the vineyards of the Margaux appellation. Your wander through the peaceful vineyards will allow you to see different wine estates such as Château Rauzan-Ségla, Château Rauzan-Gassies, Château Palmer and more before reaching the world-known Château Margaux. Walk back to Chateau Marquis de Terme and stop for a coffee-break served with locals sweet treats, before starting the drive back to the pier.
