Presentation
Starting at Piriac-sur-Mer, labelled ‘Petite Cité de Caractère’ to Guérande labelled ‘Ville d’Art et d’Histoire’, your route is clearly marked out for you. In the narrow streets of Piriac-sur-Mer, enjoy a leisurely walk around the traditional houses with their brightly painted doors, their hydrangeas cascading in flowers, the heavy stone walls like those to be seen in the neighbouring Brittany. The next natural destination on your travels is the majestic town of Guérande. This masterpiece of Medieval architecture is well worth a visit, be sure to take the time for a stroll around the ramparts.
