제네스톤 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Here, a certain Marie Lorteau (aged 8) is said to have had a conversation with the Virgin. This apparition, although not recognized by the Church, seems to still be celebrated because the site is very well maintained. Returning to cycling, I advise against the trails that head north through the Cailleries wetland nature reserve. Flooded in winter and overgrown with brambles in summer. I won't try it a third time.

Beautiful view of the lake of Grand-Lieu

At the end of winter, the path stops with the level of the lake which cuts the road and does not allow you to go to the end. But it doesn't matter, it's always nice to go for a little walk

Nice little port with a beautiful view of the Ognon river

One of the rare windows offering a view of the lake accessible by road bike, except in the heart of winter when the water level rises. The 7 fishermen authorized to operate on the lake leave from here.

In 1882, in a hamlet in the south of Loire-Inférieure (old name of Loire Atlantique), at the limit of the Vendée department, the Blessed Virgin Mary "appeared" to a very poor 8-year-old child: Marie Lorteau. These apparitions, not yet recognized by the Church, will give rise to worship and a pilgrimage that will bring together up to 3000 people at the height of popular fervor. Even now, the place remains very well maintained and gives rise to some prayer gatherings. More prosaically, the road that leads there makes its way through the grove and is very pleasant for cycling.

Nice little port from Trejet to La Chevrolière. Picnic tables, shaded lawn and possibility of fishing. Very pleasant for a refueling stop.
