The Pey de la Blet lookout is a true architectural challenge with its monumental staircase that rises from the ground for a journey into the clouds! Your legs somewhat tired after climbing the 184 steps, you reach the panoramic platform, nestled 37 meters high. And there, wow! You take in the entire surrounding nature.

The 583-meter-long Noirmoutier Island Bridge, connecting Barbâtre to the mainland from Fromentine (La Barre des Monts), is accessible free of charge 24/7. It now has a cycle path on the west side and a pedestrian lane on the east side.

For a refreshing mountain bike ride, head to Fromentine Beach where you can experience a unique ride along the coastal path. You will enjoy breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and the impressive Noirmoutier Bridge, with the waves and the vast coastline as a backdrop.

A little bit distressing regarding the bridge cycle lane, constantly closed for work. Fortunately, a temporary lane is reserved on each side of the path for bicycles. The disadvantage is a narrowing of the car lane... so keep to the right 😉
