Route details
Description
Mallièvre, the smallest city in Vendée has something to seduce: whitewater, old stones, strong identity...
All this beautifully highlighted and told over an exciting route that declines all the activities related to water and the history of the most beautiful village of Haut Bocage Vendéen. Perched 162 meters high, Mallièvre has been making perfect love for several millennia with the Sèvre which bubbles at its feet. The inhabitants have turned to crafts, especially textiles, a Cholet tradition. The houses without a foundation, built directly on the rock, each housed a loom. This activity has given the village an architectural harmony, carefully restored. The Cave du Tisserand, the circuit of Fountains, that of Genovette as well as the unmissable craft market are all elements of visit to spend a pleasant day in the heart of the Sèvre Nantaise valley.
