The Gironde is the largest and most powerful tidal river in Europe. When she flows into the Atlantic, she is 15 kilometers wide, and in the rhythm of the tides she brings the waters from the Pyrenees and the Massif Central into the ocean. The water surface of the stream is so large that evaporation has created its own microclimate which, together with the brackish waters to the right and left of the banks, has created a unique regenerating biodiversity.

The Dordogne is formed by a visible and an invisible system of flowing water. Caves, basins under the earth's surface store the excess water and return it to the river when dry. A perfect management of a precious resource, not conceived by man, but by the complex nature itself. The result is an ever life-giving river.
