Landing of the Navibus N3, the ferryman which crosses the Erdre at this location. The boat can carry several bicycles, except during busy periods.
Located at the crossroads of the towpath and the path which runs along the Cens river.

Towpath along the Erdre, opposite the Château d'Éraudière

Highlight • Trail

It's a great way to get out of Nantes from the North! However, be careful with runners and walkers ...

Pont Général-de-la-Motte-Rouge

Highlight • Bridge

A very pretty metal bridge, but above all, a perfect place to reach the surrounding quays and the island of Versailles. It's one of the prettiest neighborhoods in Nantes!
