A lone maritime pine tree stands sentinel between the sandy path and still waters, its windswept form creating a natural waypoint along the coastal trail under a vast blue sky dotted with clouds. This iconic species (Pinus pinaster) has defined the landscape of the Landes forest surrounding Arcachon for centuries, serving as both natural protection against coastal erosion and the foundation of the regional economy through resin production that once employed thousands in France's largest man-made woodland.
