From the salt of Guerande to the beauty of the sea - Du sel à la mer

  • Bike
Place du marché au Bois, 44350 Guérande

Description

Before leaving Guérande are you absolutely sure to have explored it completely? A stroll along its narrow medieval streets is really worth doing, make the most of this opportunity!
From the town centre we suggest you follow the route marked Vélocéan: it will take you towards the former railway line which once linked La Baule to Guérande. Now converted into a cycle path it is an ideal route to take at your leisure towards La Baule.
Once you’ve crossed the footbridge at Beslon you will reach the seafront for a spot of welldeserved relaxation at the beach.

Steps

Preparing for Your Cycling Route




  • To follow the route easily, download the GPX file and import it into a compatible app or bike computer (Strava, Komoot, Garmin Connect, OpenRunner, etc.).

  • You can then follow the route throughout your ride, even without an internet connection, depending on the app or device you are using.



Before Setting Off




  • Before you leave, make sure you have the essentials with you: water, a snack, a bag for your rubbish and, if needed, a repair kit. Wearing a helmet is strongly recommended.

  • The route combines shared roads, greenways and trails. Adjust your pace to suit your type of bike (road bike, mountain bike or gravel bike) and stay alert to other users.

  • Some sections pass through sensitive natural areas. Please stay on designated paths, respect the surroundings and ride carefully throughout the route.



Cycling Through the Salt Marshes



The salt marshes are first and foremost working areas, where vehicles and machinery used for salt harvesting may be operating. Extra care is recommended for less confident cyclists, particularly during the summer salt-harvesting season. Whenever possible, use designated cycle paths for greater safety.
