Beautiful view from the bridge over the Sèvre and the hamlet of "Vallée de Torfou". From the latter you can see the old tannery on the riverbank, and glimpse the church and some elements of the castle higher up.

Beautiful pond surrounded by magnificent trees. Plenty of benches that encourage rest or contemplation. A welcome little patch of greenery after crossing the vineyard in the full sun. A trail allows you to go around the natural site, but I didn't have time to try it. Note that the path that connects La Fauvette to La Pontereau is very smooth and magnificent.

Also known as Moulin du Rouet, this recently restored mill on the Sèvre Nantaise River actually dates back to the 17th century. The eastbound path to Tiffauges is very passable by mountain bike/gravel bike. However, the path that heads west to La Penneraie is very steep and bumpy, and of little visual interest.

Another beautiful site on the Sèvre Nantaise, with the unusual feature this time: it's not only at the crossroads of three departments (LA, Vendée, and M&L), a rather common occurrence, but also of three former provinces: Brittany, Poitou, and Anjou. The crossroads is formed by the Sèvre on one side and its tributary, the Bon Débit, on the other. The inn of the same name looks very nice; in any case, the setting is splendid.

It spans the Sèvre Nantaise at a height of almost 30 metres, ensuring the passage of the Clisson Cholet railway line. The two roadways supported a wheat mill and a fulling mill, replaced by an electric plant in 1915.
