Explore The Vignoble Nantais in a different way

Ride to the rhythm of the landscape. Criss-crossing the hillsides, following the rivers, crossing the villages… Here, cycling takes on its full meaning: it takes you to the place where the landscape is fully experienced, in the silence of a sunken path or the breath of a descent between the vines. In contact with the landscape, the panoramas and the scents of earth and foliage.

Guided or self-guided tours take you from Clisson to the banks of the Loire to discover a land of many faces.

Your testimonials

In any case, this walk (the Vélidéale) is a great opportunity to plunge into two worlds, between the very natural atmosphere of the Sèvre and Maine rivers and the wine-growing area. They are both emblems of the Nantes vineyards and once again demonstrate the diversity of landscapes to be found in this area. I can’t wait to come back!
