Departure from Tiffauges (Vendée)
This route offers magnificent views of Tiffauges Castle, especially at the end, or what remains of it, the famous Bluebeard's Castle.
It runs largely along the Sèvre Nantaise stream.
Note that this route can be shortened halfway by taking the Pont de la Grossière bridge. This halves the time and distance for little legs.
On the other hand, the second part is wilder and more bucolic.

Departure from Clisson (Loire-Atlantique)
Between the tame and tranquil Sèvre Nantaise and the wild and secretive Moine, this life-size trail is sure to appeal to many hikers. Footbridges over the rivers make it easier to get around and allow you to better enjoy the steep-sided valleys.
Please note: due to the Hellfest festival in Clisson, the Sèvre Nantaise to Moine route is not accessible during the second half of June (dates to be checked each year).
