Marcillé plateau to the towpath

On this walk around Membrolle-sur-Longuenée and Pruillé you can expect to discover beautiful countryside, orchards and peaceful undulating trails. 

Touristic places
- The Choiseau valley surrounding this little stream is a direct tributary of the Mayenne river. You can find, in this valley, a small vine hut, the evidence of the presence of a vineyard that used to produce sweet white wine.
- In Feneu, if you come back down to the Mayenne river and walk along hectares of pome and stone fruit cultures with the Vauléard orchards.
- Mayenne’s towpath used to permit the pulling of small boats by men or horses. They went back up the river thanks to “towing”.
- On the right bank, the Roussière lock is a must-see for fluvial tourism. With its fascinating architecture, this is a quiet and pleasant place.
- The port of Pruillé welcomes many pleasure-sailors for gourmet breaks in the open-air cafe or the inn but also to cross the Mayenne river with its ferry “Le trait d’Union” propelled with its two waterwheels.
