This penultimate stage of the Loire by bike reaches Nantes while maintaining a very low vertical drop: 110 meters uphill for a total distance of 41 kilometers.To vary the landscapes a little, you walk along the Divatte, a small local river, before joining the Loire again. Surrounded by fields and small woods for about twenty kilometers, you will end up crossing the Loire to arrive in Nantes.Several attractions await you in this metropolis of more than 300,000 inhabitants. On the one hand, the Lieu Unique: an art center located in the former premises of the LU factory, which is aptly named: the building indeed mixes an art gallery, theater, bookstore, bar, restaurant, hammam … A few meters away is a much more conventional building: the castle of the Dukes of Brittany and its pretty, perfectly maintained ramparts. Finally, it is impossible to cross Nantes without admiring its Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul cathedral, which again offers tours since summer 2021.The tour continues a few kilometers after Nantes, but if you want to benefit from a wide choice of accommodation, it is better not to stray too far from the city.
