The towpath and the disused railway lines

Along the Mayenne - rides along the towpath

The towpath, one of the most beautiful greenways of France, runs along 50 miles of the banks of the river Mayenne.  Peace and beauty in one.
Enjoy this exceptional opportunity to discover the fauna, flora and local heritage along the towpath.

 

Railway lines

The General Council of La Mayenne, after the restoration of the towpath, has started renovating the enormous number of old railway paths, converting them for walking.
