Grez Neuville is a charming little village where I recommend you stroll along the Quai de l'Hirondelle and the lock. There you will find pretty views over the village, the Mayenne and an old mill.

Picturesque lock on the banks of the Mayenne on the Vélo Francette route. It is an ideal place to take a break and enjoy the idyllic setting. You can stock up at the Écluse bistro, or visit the small village.

Take the small path as close as possible to the Mayenne, it runs along the towpath.
Passable all year round and at night with good lighting, watch out for pedestrians and low tree branches.
