All new trips

On the Vélo Francette, time slows down and the scenery flies by like animated postcards. From Laval to Angers, let yourself be guided by the Mayenne River as it winds its way through lush green valleys. Here, each pedal stroke brings you closer to a new discovery: a flower-filled lock, a picturesque village, a welcoming waterside guinguette. The perfect three-day getaway for the whole family, where nature is your partner in adventure.

Between limestone cliffs and medieval towns, Mayenne unfolds its history like a book. Here, time is written in stone and read in the open air. Follow the winding course of the Erve, the river that carved caves where the first artists left their mark 25,000 years ago. Then climb the rocky outcrop of Sainte-Suzanne, famous for having resisted the formidable William the Conqueror. End your journey in ancient Noviodunum, where the thermal baths and theater still tell the story of Gallo-Roman daily life. A suspended weekend, where every step takes you on a journey through the millennia.

Follow the tranquil course of the Loire, where guinguette tunes mingle with the dance of the river's meanders. By bike, La Loire reveals its unspoilt landscapes and towns perched like sentinels watching over the water.

There's a land where white stone glows in the sunlight, where secret cellars house sparkling treasures, where abbeys tell a thousand years of history in a single glance. Between Saumur and Fontevraud, the Loire Valley invites you on a unique sensory journey. Here, you don't visit, you experience. You don't taste, you commune with centuries of savoir-faire. Experience an escape where the soul of the Val de Loire is revealed to those who know how to look.

Between golden vines and red brick facades, Clisson has been living a love affair with Italy for over two centuries. But this medieval town doesn't just play the role of Tuscan understudy. It also vibrates to the metal rhythms of the legendary Hellfest festival. Here, medieval castle towers stand alongside umbrella pines, cobbled alleyways lead to waterside cafés, and ancient statues seem to converse with post-apocalyptic sculptures. Is a weekend really enough to capture all these contrasts? Come and find out.

Breathe deeply, feel the salt on your lips, listen to the ocean whispering in the hollow of the rocks. Welcome to the Guérande peninsula, where the sea meets the land, where every path leads to an escape. Let the sea spray, the wind and the light guide you for a weekend between salty land and wild sea, between granite legends and seaside delights. Here, spring and autumn offer a more intimate atmosphere, a less hurried setting, an invitation to slow down.

Between the cobbled streets of the Bouffay and the mechanical silhouettes of the Machines de l'île, Nantes fires your imagination. The city where Jules Verne dreamed up his extraordinary voyages continues to cultivate this creative fantasy. Follow the green line painted on the ground and let yourself be surprised at every turn. Here, a wood-and-steel elephant snorts through old warehouses. Here, colorful rings light up the quays in the evening. Between history and unbridled creativity, Nantes invites you on a journey where the real flirts with the imaginary.

Between majestic river and impatient ocean, the Loire winds its way to the Atlantic in a sinuous 60-kilometer dance. From Nantes to Saint-Nazaire, the estuary is transformed into an open-air museum, where works of art emerge at the bend of a meander: here a house in the water, there a giant snake rising from the waves, further on a starry garden on the river's edge. In this little world between the Loire and the Atlantic, adventure doesn't need miles to be great. It nestles in the changing light on the water, in the breeze that turns to sea breeze, in the villages that emerge like islands from the estuary.

Between winding valleys and verdant hills, the Alpes Mancelles invite you to an unexpected escape in the heart of the Pays de la Loire region. This unspoilt region, where the Sarthe River meanders capriciously between sandstone cliffs, offers a surprising Alpine-style journey without leaving the West. For a weekend, immerse yourself in this natural symphony, where perched villages tell their stories and trails whisper their secrets.

In the heart of Sud Mayenne, between meandering rivers, secret gardens and architectural treasures, Sud Mayenne invites you to slow down. Here, the hours stretch like willow branches along the water's edge. Château-Gontier unfurls its tuffeau facades, while strange stone giants stand watch at Cossé-le-Vivien. Welcome to a corner of Mayenne that likes to gently surprise.
