a stele installed in 2024 in tribute to the 8 people who died and 2 were injured during a bombing in August 1944 by the allies following an error. This place called "the ford of the alder" was a farm occupied by the David family. The allies bombed thinking of an enemy occupation. My mother at 12 years old lived not far from there and saw this dramatic bombing. Thank you to the mayor and all the people who initiated this memorial! You can read the explanatory panel on the history of this place.

Very nice walk. Lots of woodland and marsh birds.

The Loudon ponds are located in the town of Parigné l'Evêque, in the heart of a forest. They are surrounded by peat bogs, wet and dry heaths, lawns and vast forests. They are the starting point for many hikes and it is not uncommon to see large mammals there, notably wild boars. The site is classified in the national inventory of Natural Areas of Ecological Fauna and Flora Interest.

This menhir, as its name suggests, was used by shepherds to protect their sheep. It was damaged in a tractor accident in 2008, which caused the stone to deteriorate. So take the time to visit this menhir - it may not be there anytime soon!

The lakes of Loudon are a privileged place to visit with a diverse habitat of bogs, wet and dry moors and forests. If you are lucky, you may even spot wild boars.
