17th century chapel built on the site where St Friard and St Secondel lived. A little further along the path you will find an oratory built above the fountain where the saints collected their water.

The line from Sablé to Montoir-de-Bretagne is a French railway line, now closed and deferred between Château-Gontier and Montoir-de-Bretagne. It was a regional axis linking the Le Mans region to the Atlantic coast, without going through Nantes.

Very pleasant walk made in the direction of L'Angle (Brillac) => Montoir, almost 10km flat and without bends, mountain biking is not necessary, a good city bike should be sufficient. Depending on your destination, arriving in Montoir is not easy, I struggled a bit to get to the port of Saint-Nazaire. Good memory that I recommend, can be combined with the Tour de Brière, it avoids the a little "urban" part of the east side.

Beautiful little chapel in the middle of marshes and a wood. Picnic area right next to the chapel.
