27,82 km cycling route from Segré-en-Anjou Bleu to Pouancé

Mostly a greenway, built on the right-of-way of a former railroad line, this section between Segré and Pouancé runs along ridge lines, offering unobstructed views of the Anjou bleu bocage, punctuated by beautiful homes, model farms and 19th-century châteaux. Slate and iron ore extraction shafts and small working-class towns bear witness to the intense mining activity of the 19th and 20th centuries. Before continuing on to Chateaubriant and the Vilaine valley, make a stopover in Pouancé, Petite Cité de Caractère®, to discover its heritage and medieval fortress, or enjoy the shady banks of the Etang Saint-Aubin.
