Château d'Ancenis

Highlight • Castle

Beautiful small fortified castle, unfortunately wedged between the two main roads of the city and therefore not highlighted too much.

Lacets du Mont Piron

Highlight • Other

The toughest climb in Loire-Atlantique, in my opinion. Quite long (> 500 m) with an average gradient of 12% and sections of over 18% according to my Garmin. The winding route reinforces the "mountain" feel.

The Great Menhir of Pierres Meslières

Highlight • Other

Large quartzite menhir, 3m76 high. It was probably part of an alignment of several dozen menhirs, which have now disappeared.
