Livré-sur-Changeon walks

A countryside walk between Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier and Livré-sur-Changeon, through fields and woodland, suitable for children, pushchairs with tyres (other than umbrella pushchairs), and dogs. Ideal, therefore, for a family outing.

A very pleasant walk in the forest of Saint-Aubin-du-Cormier with a return to the pond. Walkers can continue their visit to this small town by pushing on to the ruins of the dismantled castle.

A short trail in Brittany’s countryside with a section along the Veuvre that winds before flowing into Chevré lake. Do not miss the small Roman bridge with its stone arches.

The Étang d’Ouée, the destination of this walk, is a body of water ideal for beginners to canoeing and kayaking. Close to the village of Gosné, the route takes you along quiet country lanes but mainly through sunken lanes, which may have small streams running through the middle after heavy rain.

A stone's throw from Vitré, a historic town in the Marches de Bretagne region, Lake Cantache stretches across three municipalities: Champeaux, Monteuil-sous-Pérouse and Pocé-les-Bois. A winter stopover for migratory birds, their presence is a source of wonder.

This route of the Couesnon can be divided into two parts: a circular route to the west and another to the east, the latter of which can be shortened. The Couesnon has a very winding course as it crosses the granite massif. Its limestone-free water was used for a long time in paper mills in the 17th century. With this industry now gone, the Couesnon is a delight for salmonids and kayakers alike.

This walk along the banks of the Couesnon, which runs parallel to another route already suggested, is shorter and slightly more challenging due to the elevation gain. This route favours paths on higher ground rather than those along the riverbank. A distinctive feature is that it is 100% trail, meaning no tarmac except for one road crossing.

The Couesnon river meanders through a deep valley, home to ancient mills.

This route will take you through the Châteaubourg countryside where, as its name suggests, there are several ponds: Pont de Pierre Pond, Roches Bises Pond and Grand Fayelle Pond. You will also walk along a small section of the Corbière Forest. This route is FFRandonnée certified. It can be done on foot or by bike.

A short, easy walk to get some fresh air.

A pretty, easy, well-marked walk passing by a chapel, the Château du Gué, the Ancienne Fonderie de Servon-sur-Vilaine, the Oratoire Saint-Mathurin, the Vilaine, the old mill, the protected Pas Davy site, the greenhouses (mainly tomatoes) and the calvary. The return journey takes you along a leafy driveway through a housing estate.

A return trip from Saint-Ouen-des-Alleux to Saint-Christophe-de-Vilains through a lush forest, offering views of an old stone bridge spanning the Minette.

Stroll through the historical heart of Vitré, city of art and history, with its medieval streets and alleys. Wander in quest of the heritage wonders with this trail. A true escape through history and the vitréen "art de vivre". End the walk by a visit of the medieval castle and its museum before going back to the starting point. Follow the description rather than the GPX tracks.

This route is the first stage of a 96 km circular through the Vitré countryside. Consisting mainly of sunken lanes, this route will take you, among other places, to the Château des Rochers-Sévigné and the Valière lake.

A picturesque walk in the Coglais region, presenting no difficulty. Peace and tranquillity are its main attractions.

All the special features of the town of Fougères unfold before you throughout this urban walk: of course, you will walk around the castle with its 11 towers, but you will also discover it from the panoramic view of the Rocher Coupé or the Jardin Public. Speaking of gardens, the Parc des Orières, the Val Nançon and the Voie Verte are also on the programme. Finally, the upper town with its belfry, theatre and museums will allow you to explore the city centre.

After walking along the Couesnon, which is calm and peaceful on this section, walkers are invited to discover a small stream that feeds it: the Vallées d'Hervé stream. Then, despite a few open sections, walkers will appreciate the peaceful shade of the undergrowth and sunken paths.

4-hour hike (hence its medium difficulty). A little road and quite a few paths. You will cross the Couesnon and Minette valleys.

An urban walk offering various panoramic views of Fougères Castle, the belfry, and the churches of Saint-Léonard and Saint-Sulpice.
