The Olonne national forest occupies more than 1,000 hectares, it is part of the Natura 2000 network. It is a treat to cross it by bike. You can come across wild boars and deer there.

August 4, 2023,Fahrt nach Les-Sables-d'Olonne
Today was the best cycling weather and I just rode very slowly down the coast. The world is different here: lots of people in a small space... beach, promenade, everything in a small space...

Day two of the great heat started with heavy thunderstorms. In total, it poured like cats and dogs for more than three hours. You can't drink that much coffee...
Most of the resorts on the drive were pretty much featureless, but the beach and dunes at Les Sables d'Olonne are magnificent.
By the way, the Vendée is not that flat, …

A leisurely ride: A truly wonderful counterbalance to yesterday. Diverse scenery, a flat tire, and plenty of sunshine. And only 62 km to recover. 😉 Tomorrow we'll be off on the final leg to Nantes.

Day 29 of my cycling trip 🌤️ Fromentine → Les Sables-d'Olonne

Today, the EV1 continued along the Vendée coast. Directly beyond Fromentine, I rolled along long sandy paths through the coastal forests. It was pleasantly quiet, with only the sound of the wind in the pines to accompany me.

Theme for the day. Labour Day in France. A public holiday - cycle routes get very busy!

May 13, 2023,Tag 12 - von Saint-Jean-de-Monts nach Talmont-Saint-Hilaire
The first 20 km were bad again. Along the road past bouncy castles, discos, tourist puff systems, I was already afraid that this would be the longest 70km of my life. And then everything turned out differently... varied cruising through very different landscapes. Sometimes spectacular views of the sea, then dune landscapes, marshes, salt flats.
