LE MONT DES AVALOIRS ET SON BELVEDERE

From the terrace of the lookout on Mont des Avaloirs, the highest point in western France (417m), you can enjoy a 360° panorama of hedged farmland, orchards and forests.

The highest point in the Armorican Massif and the Grand Ouest (416 metres above sea level). Whether you're a nature lover or just curious, all you have to do is climb the 108 steps to the Belvedere to enjoy a 360° panoramic viewpoint from which you can admire the landscape from up to 100 km away. At the foot of the building, explanatory panels tell the story of this mysterious place. Not far from the Belvédère car park, a footpath leads to "La Pierre au Loup", where the Mayenne river rises.
