Segré
Old railway

The cycle route starts at Vieux Pont and follows La Vélo Francette to the connection with the voie verte, now equipped with directional signs to Segré. With its compacted stabilized surface, this green ribbon joins Segré-en-Anjou-bleu (Maine-et-Loire). The route offers alternating views of woods, pastures and farmland, before crossing the old railway viaduct overlooking the Oudon and the town of Segré.

The cycle route

An entirely greenway stage, built on a former railroad line. Most of the surface is stabilized sand.
