Tourism and outings are often seen as pure entertainment. Gone are the days when people were careful “not to sunbathe foolishly”. Nowadays, tours invite walkers to see nothing, understand nothing and learn nothing about the regions they pass through. The Château de Mongenan, which created the Route des châteaux et Cités au cœur d’Aquitaine in 1994, shares Montesquieu’s vision that travel is inseparable from initiation. As a stopover on the path of life, each visit is like a pilgrimage. It allows you to take possession of the space and inhabit it, to understand who you are, where you come from, where you’re going.
