Cycling trails on Noirmoutier Island
With its 80 km of bike paths and a lack of relief (highest point at 23 m), the island of Noirmoutier is a paradise for cycling enthusiasts. 20 km of cycle paths reserved for bicycles, pedestrians or rollerblades pass on the edge of the natural sites and invite to a total immersion in full nature, in complete safety, far from the cars. Ideal to walk with family!
Bicycle lanes have also been built along the roads. Shared lanes are small tracts and low traffic farm roads.
A complete map of the cycle paths is available from the two tourist information offices of the island. And to cycle safely on the island of Noirmoutier, follow the guide of good behavior.
