Explore the surroundings of Angers and its vineyards famous for its appellations “Savennières” and “Coteau du Layon”. Our cycling tour will take you to the west and south west of Angers to beautiful wine areas with picturesque villages and spectacular hillside vineyards.
We start cycling around 10 am alongside the Loire river on cycling paths until we reach our first winery “La Coulée de Serrant” world famous for its production of white dry wine called “Savennières”. After a nice wine tasting we keep on cycling alongside the Loire river until we reach the island of Behuard where we have our nice picnic!
After a one-hour break or so, we cycle to the other bank of the Loire river and enter in the region of Layon, famous for its white sweet wines! We make a stop at our second winery “la Soucherie” where we have a great wine tasting. Back on our bike we then take another cycling path that leads us to the heart of the Layon with its narrow and curvy river surrounded by hillside vineyards!
