Cens (rivière) walks

An easy hike along three streams: le Cens, l'Erdre, and le Gesvres. Nature within the town of Nantes.

This hike starts and ends at the Bon Garand Chapel in the commune of Sautron but mainly takes place in the commune of Vigneux. It alternates between farm tracks in the countryside and wooded passages, and passes through several typical hamlets with some very beautiful buildings.

A lovely little route along the Cens and through the countryside around Sautron.

Semi-urban hike along three rivers that wind through Stream: the Cens, the Gesvres and the Erdre. The crossing over the Beaujoire bridge may be uncomfortable for people who are afraid of heights or have vertigo (especially on the stairs).

This hike will allow you to walk in the heart of nature. A succession of beautiful paths, a little tarmac here and there, but beautiful countryside landscapes everywhere.

This large circular hike will allow you to discover Nantes by following four of its streams. The vast majority of this hike takes place in the woods, along the water's edge, and passes through several parks that are well known to Nantes residents. In the urban section, you will discover the city's historical treasures, its castle, its cathedral, and some of the most iconic sites of Nantes culture.

Hike starting from Orvault church, passing through Le Loret, Château de la Tour, Le Petit Aunay, La Retardière and Beau Soleil.

The tour of the commune of Sautron, starting from the Chézine Valley, will take you to the Cens Valley, via theGR®3and the Bongarand chapel (halfway along the route, ideal for a break). You will cross several fords.
