Take your foot on the Sentier du Vallon in Montgaillard

It is in this place, nestled in the heart of the green Bigourdane nature, that Thomas Lamarque has chosen to install a singular path, for an XXL sensory experience. ” Ten years ago, I discovered the concept of barefoot trails on the Internet, already well developed in Germany. In May 2012, I went there to find out how it worked. In the process, I arranged my route which was already drawn. In July of the same year, I welcomed my first visitors. I quickly felt that it responded well to a request he says.

The site is open to everyone… Even newborns can frolic on all fours

The one-kilometre course, which winds along a stream, tickles your arch step by step for sensations…waooooh! With 7,200 nerve endings per foot, can you imagine the scene of rejoicing that goes up to the brain? Nirvana we tell you…
