Route de St-Denis-du-Payré

Highlight (Segment) • Other

A wonderful road between St-Denis-du-Payré and Chasnais. Unlike the roads towards the coast, this one is a bit more varied: winding, undulating, and shady. Very beautiful!

A lovely dirt road for driving out of St-Denis. A pleasant and traffic-calmed alternative to the D60 ramp.

Saint-Michel-en-l'Herm to La Dive

Highlight (Segment) • Other

A wonderful road from Saint-Michel-en-l'Herm to the Atlantic. It's relatively quiet here, and the "mountain village" of La Dive is a lovely eye-catcher.

La Dive

Highlight • Other

Do not hesitate to take the road to go up there, even if there is a short gravel section of less than 100m. From up there you can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire Pointe de l'Aiguillon.

View From the Bridge at the Entrance to La Faute-sur-Mer

Highlight • Viewpoint

It is very beautiful, very wild, especially if you push to the point of the Aiguillon - watch out for the wind and the sand in the bearings.

Grues - Larouix

Highlight (Segment) • Other

I think the direction Grues-Lairoux is more fun, as it is longer downhill

Saint-Sauveur Church of Mareuil-sur-Lay

Highlight • Religious Site

The site of Mareuil sur Lay corresponds to that of an old city marked by the proximity of the sea. Former port, it welcomed the barges (traditional boats dedicated to the transport of goods) which went up the Lay by transporting in particular salt. Once at the port, the salt was unloaded and transported overland. Under Napoleon 1st, a national road was laid out, leading to the construction of a new stone bridge and Mareuil became an obligatory passage between La Roche sur Yon and La Rochelle. The bridge you cross here dates from this period and offers a beautiful view of the old town of Mareuil.
The town is also at the heart of the Mareuil vineyard, which is the largest and one of the most famous in Vendée. Located on the slopes of the Lay and Yon rivers, it extends over an area of 300 hectares divided between 10 municipalities. Annual production is approximately 17,000 hl.
