        The towpath, which follows the Mayenne for 85 km, is an exceptional route for exploring the region’s riches. From lively guinguettes to themed cruises, this green setting is a real invitation to recharge your batteries and share your experiences. Following the curves of the river, it offers walkers and cyclists a unique getaway, lulled by the gentle murmur of the water.

        Hikers, walkers and other nature lovers can discover La Mayenne from every angle: history, heritage, fauna, flora, nature, locks.

        From Laval and the Halte Fluviale, choose the bike that’s right for you (electric-assist, traditional, Gravel) and its equipment (children’s trailer, follower bike, panniers) and create your own adventure!
