Rougé takes its name from the colour of the soil. Set off to explore the iron route, which partly follows the old railway line through the Brutz valley, crossing landscapes of moorland and hedgerows. You will see the site of the old iron mines, which were worked by the Celts and Gallo-Romans. You will notice the red colour of some of the paths, a sign of the presence of iron ore in the region. The same is true, in places, of the water in the streams.

Le Theil-de-Bretagne is a predominantly rural commune with a rich architectural, religious and natural heritage. The Résidence Bon Abri, the Notre-Dame de Beauvais Chapel, listed as a historic monument, the Château de La Rigaudière and the church with its patriotic stained-glass windows are just a few examples.

Straddling the municipalities of Pancé, Poligné and Pléchâtel, the Tertre Gris site is steeped in history: geological, historical, industrial and environmental. Seven discovery stations are located along the path near the banks of the Semnon. You will be able to read the landscape from the viewpoint, understand the "Volcano" and the geology of the Tertre, and savour its legends (at the summit and at the foot of the volcano).Please note that this route is not signposted.

I suggest you discover this charming little town and its lake in an original way, by taking the small side roads. Small change due to a ban on crossing the small wood next to the Moulin de Bertaud.

A very pleasant walk between forest and lake with no difficulty except, for some, the distance. After enjoying the tranquillity of the Araize Forest at the start, you will then experience the calm and serenity of the Étang de la Forge lake.

A beautiful and very pleasant hike, mostly along a wide, shaded stone path. The trail goes around the pond. Best done in dry weather.

A short 5 km walk in Corps-Nuds, offering a chance to recharge your batteries amidst natural surroundings (a pond, a short forest trail with footbridges, etc.) whilst discovering the local heritage. An ideal route for families with children.

A very pleasant path, partly under the trees and along the left bank of the Quincampoix, leads you into the Parc du Château de Piré, the former grounds of an 18th-century château. You will be able to see the Château des Pères, now a gourmet restaurant. The park is a departmental nature reserve. You will finish by walking through the village of Piré-sur-Seiche

After walking along small asphalt country roads, it is a pleasure to find yourself on these green paths surrounded by magnificent trees, first along the Seiche and then the Quincampoix.

Route between Bourg-des-Comptes and Pléchâtel. Along the way, you will see four châteaux of different styles, periods and states of preservation: "Gai Lieu", "La Molière", "Le Boschet" and "Mont Rive". Thefifth, "Le Hamonay", is almost invisible.

What better way to explore a town than on foot? That’s what I’m suggesting here: discover, in my own way, the small but charming town of Châteaubriant. So, follow me...

This is a beautiful circular that partly follows theGR®39along charming paths. The return journey is along the towpath, going up the Vilaine. This path takes you through beautiful landscapes, typical villages, charming residences and locks, and ends up running alongside this river, which is so poorly named.

Pont Péan still bears traces of its former mining activity.A silver lead (or galena) mine was operated there from 1730 to 1797 and from 1844 to 1904.This route allows you to see some remains of this activity and to tour the village near the Tellé stream on the edge of the urban and rural areas.

An easy route, which takes you to the outskirts of Pont-Péan through the countryside and back along the Seiche. Just be careful of cars when crossing the N137 (two four-lane carriageways to cross). Please note: access to the Seiche may be restricted during periods of high water and flooding.

Unfortunately, they have since disappeared, but in the 17th century, the region’s vineyards produced a wine of some renown. Madame de Sévigné, in fact, mentions it in several of her letters. Today, the only traces that remain are the names of local hamlets: Les Bourgeons, La Vigne, etc. Over the final few kilometres, the route runs alongside the Quincampoix, a small river teeming with wildlife.

A pleasant walk in the countryside that takes us past old lime kilns.
