11의 아르젠통-노트르담가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Magnificent viaduct, the largest in Mayenne, blends in very well with the landscape.

Atypical work of art (a little special all the same in this green setting on the banks of the Mayenne) with a staircase under the deck which allows you to cross the Mayenne.

Magnificent site with camping and a waterfront café. Relaxing and pleasant.

It is the castle which gave its name to the town. Only the fortifications remain. These ramparts are more than a thousand years old and were built in the 11th century.

The Mayenne Viaduct is an impressive bridge that spans the Mayenne River for 300 meters and offers two ways to cross it: at road level with a bike or car, or at arch level with your feet. At the arch level, a wooden terrace located in the middle offers you a breathtaking view of the river and the surrounding landscape. You can also access the banks and towpath on both sides of the bridge, and enjoy nature and wildlife. The viaduct is part of the northern bypass of Château-Gontier, a charming town with a rich heritage that is worth visiting. Inaugurated in 2022, the viaduct is the largest road bridge in Mayenne.

If you are looking for a unique way to discover Mayenne, you can try the Bac de Ménil, the last ferry in the department. You can cross the river on foot, by bike, on horseback or even by car, and enjoy the panoramic views of the countryside. The Bac de Ménil runs from April 15 to September 15 and is free. You can also enjoy the nearby picnic area and playground. The Bac de Ménil is an excellent option for a fun and original hike.

From the village of Daon, a breathtaking view of Mayenne awaits you.

The Mirwault lock is the entrance for boaters to Château-Gontier. It is now mechanized and fully automated. The lock keeper is responsible and can take over if necessary. It's worth stopping by to see it in action.
