For this 7th Spring walk des Chemins du Mont-Saint-Michel, come and discover the first Breton stages on the route of the Capitals, starting from the château of Clisson (Loire-Atlantique) and ending in Nantes, the ducal capital.
The route will take in some of the finest landscapes in the world, including the Muscadet vineyards and the Nantes region, and will reveal a rich heritage dating back thousands of years.
This walk is organised in conjunction with the "Haltes pèlerines en Loire-Atlantique" association, which monitors, organises and promotes these dual-marked stages to Le Mont and Compostela.
