Office de Tourisme du Pays des Achards

Description

The Pays des Achards lies on the La Roche sur Yon / Les Sables d'Olonne axis in the Vendée, just 15 minutes from the Atlantic coast. Our region offers you all the advantages of the back-coast. There are no big towns here, just 9 welcoming communes, with low, red-tiled houses, cows in the meadows, a family atmosphere and a peaceful way of life that contrasts with the hustle and bustle of the big Vendée beaches, even though they're just a stone's throw away.
Here, you can take your time, relax and breathe...!

Lac du Jaunay, a must-see destination in the Pays des Achards, is a 114-hectare protected natural area. It is renowned for its fishing, but also for its many other sporting activities: hiking, mountain biking, water sports or just relaxing walks.

The Tourist Office is open all year round and offers a comprehensive ticketing service. Depending on the activities and shows on offer, you can take advantage of preferential rates, discounts, good deals and time savings at the ticket desks of the various tourist sites.
