グラン・ランドでののおすすめグラベルライド

ヴァンデで最大の湖、面積1.67km2

この中世の非常に重要な要塞は、宗教戦争中に大部分が破壊されました。

湖沿いのとても美しい小道です。ただし、道幅が比較的狭く、週末はすぐに歩行者/自転車/犬で混雑するため、週末の自転車での走行はおすすめしません... 平日は完璧です！

14th-century church, restored in the 19th century, in the Flamboyant Gothic style. Drinking water in the adjoining restrooms.

Aizenay is a small part of Vendée where history sometimes invites itself in surprising ways, like this forest where an American bomber crashed in 1944, leaving a memorial made of metal plaques telling the story of this epic. But Aizenay is also the peaceful countryside where nature stretches as far as the eye can see, between farms and wooded paths. The town has managed to retain this rural charm while being well connected to La Roche-sur-Yon, its larger neighbor. Here, past and present coexist with a small nod to troubled times, once a refuge for royalists on the run. In short, a village that whispers its secrets to those who listen.

This imposing building with its beautiful stained glass windows is characteristic of the period of the law of separation of Church and State (1905). Opened for worship on Christmas Day 1905, it was consecrated in 1965 and celebrated its centenary in 2006. During restoration work undertaken at the end of 2005, under the original floor, several sarcophagi and the bases of buildings were discovered.

A gentle and calm cycle path passing through the Parc des Sittelles and going to the town of Aizenay. There are plenty of places to have a snack and rest (also to stock up on water), and there is a major site to visit - the Saint Benoit d'Aizenay church.
