サン＝アマンド＝シュル＝セーヴルのおすすめライド

A beautifully landscaped oriental park. Very well served by cycle paths from Cholet or Bressuire/Mauléon. The largest Japanese garden in Europe.

It is in this village of 1,500 souls, Chambretaud, that an exceptional brioche is prepared, this delicacy so dear to the Vendée gastronomic heritage. Widely awarded medals, the Brin bakery has become in 14 years an essential stop for locals and tourists alike on the road to Puy du Fou.

The Château de Saint Mesmin is a medieval fortress built in the 14th century during the Hundred Years' War. It has been restored and animated by various activities and events that recreate life in the Middle Ages. You can explore the castle and its surroundings, enjoy the panoramic view from the 28 meter high keep and take part in workshops, games and shows that will make you feel like a knight or a princess. The castle is open from April to November. The Château de Saint Mesmin is a destination of choice for hikers who wish to discover a rich and exciting heritage in a beautiful natural setting.

Best Vendée Brioche 2023

Short ascent of St Michel Mont Mercure but quite steep 10%

The ruins of this 11th century castle are worth visiting. Located on the heights of the village of Pouzanges, the castle offers a spectacular view.

Be careful, it climbs steeply to reach it

Very nice oriental garden (larger in Europe)
