Barbin Viaduct: On Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, you can see the tourist steam train. It is marked "no entry," but you can still walk along it.

Another beautiful site on the Sèvre Nantaise, with the unusual feature this time: it's not only at the crossroads of three departments (LA, Vendée, and M&L), a rather common occurrence, but also of three former provinces: Brittany, Poitou, and Anjou. The crossroads is formed by the Sèvre on one side and its tributary, the Bon Débit, on the other. The inn of the same name looks very nice; in any case, the setting is splendid.

Mountain bike or gravel outing

These are not the Verdon Gorges

As you hike through the stunning Verdon Gorges, you’ll come across the impressive Barbin Viaduct, a historic railway bridge. This iconic structure, with its imposing arches and intricate design, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the past.

Passage on the Sèvre Nantaise

Magnificent view

This passage over a bridge in this valley dug by the Sèvre Nantaise is located at the exact confluence of the 3 municipalities and departments each representing one of the 3 historical provinces: Boussay, Loire Atlantique (44) for Brittany, Torfou, Maine and Loire (49) for Anjou, La Bruffière, Vendée (85) for Poitou. It is a peaceful valley with an inn. On the map, this place is found under its real name: "La Grossière", but it is still less elegant... For cyclists, it's an opportunity to go uphill with also 3 choices: a gentler slope (approximately 4 or 5%) going towards Torfou and Maine et Loire, steeper (6 to 8%) going towards the Bruffière and the Vendée, and can be even a little steeper (6 to 9%) on the small road which goes up towards the north and allows to branch off towards Boussay and the Loire Atlantique.
