Le Pallet walks

This hike starts on the north bank of the Sèvre Nantaise but mainly takes place on the south bank. It offers both beautiful views along the river and panoramic views over the vineyards. It is accessible all year round in principle, but in wet weather, some sections may be muddy.

This walk takes you along the Sèvre Nantaise, passing through a small port and winding its way through the Muscadet vineyards, while you admire the small, typical, historic villages of the Nantes vineyards.

Traditional houses, superb paths through the vineyards, shady banks of the Sèvre: a wonderful itinerary!

This hike starts at the port of La Haye-Fouassière and follows a circular route along the south bank of the Sèvre Nantaise to Monnières (on the Way of St James), with an optional detour to the reservoir on the Sèvre at Le Pallet (approximately 15 km without this option). It offers commanding views over the Sèvre and its surroundings and often winds its way through vineyards.

The section that follows the Maine valley is absolutely superb. The rest of the route consists of a few small roads, mostly paths, vineyards and woods. Practical information: two variants are available, which, when combined, reduce the route from 21 km to approximately 16.5 km.

This loop mainly takes place in the vineyards between Saint-Fiacre-sur-Maine and Château-Thébaud, south of Nantes. It offers some lovely views, particularly at the Belvédère de Château-Thébaud, which overlooks the Maine. The circuit follows farm tracks through the vineyards (some of which may be private). The landscape changes with the seasons and the different colours of the vineyards.

Discover Clisson, its castle, its historic centre, its churches and its warrens.

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).

Walk along the Sèvre river and don't forget to admire the beautiful villages, mills and houses decorated with flowers.

This hike takes place mainly on paths. Going from village to village, it offers a beautiful variety of landscapes: there are both wide-open views of the vineyards and the Sèvre Nantaise valley, and wooded passages, particularly along the banks of the Sèvre. It can be enjoyed in any season, with the colours and light offering ever-changing pleasures!

A family hike that crosses villages, forests, woods and vineyards south of Vertou. A circular route starting from the École de l'Enclos, which largely follows the Portillon route.

A beautiful hike with a few very small roads in the first third of the route, then only paths, particularly along the banks of the Sèvre. It is part of a series of loops that allow you to explore the banks of the Sèvre.

Marked trail starting from Rue du Gaudu, which runs along the Moine river via the Pierre de l'Écuelle. This legendary rock is said to bear the engraved image of the devil's plate and knife...

An easy hike starting from Saint-Crespin-sur-Moine, which begins on the banks of the Moine and goes to Monfaucon, returning north via as many paths as possible.

This fully signposted route runs between the banks of the Divatte, vineyards and hedgerows in the commune of Barbechat. It mainly follows unpaved paths and offers wide-open views of the landscape. In terms of built heritage, the main point of interest is the Château de la Berrière. The route starts from the car park at the Perthuis Churin leisure centre, which can be reached by following the signs for Landemont on the D207 from the village.

This circular route takes us from Boussay to Tiffauges, close to the beautiful Sèvre Nantaise valley, and returns via very peaceful country lanes.
