Boucle cyclable Entre Loire et Acheneau

The Pays de Retz is an ideal destination for nature and history lovers! Situated between the Loire, the Atlantic, Nantes and the Vendée, this region invites you to discover its riches. Welcome to Rouans and Cheix-en-Retz

Departing from the town of Rouans, this 21.2km loop will take you through the ancient landscapes and the varied and typical built heritage of the area.
On these trails, you'll be immersed in the history of a countryside shaped by water.
Here, water is an integral part of our identity: it is present both naturally and as a result of human activity.
It can be found in many different forms in our rural communities: rivers, streams, canals, marshes and marshlands...

During your journey, you will discover :

the centre of Rouans and Cheix
Messan
Buzay
the trembling stone
the bridge and village of Buzon
