Landscape and trails
The Circuit de l'Abbaye starts in Thorigné-d'Anjou and combines an exploration of the built heritage with rural landscapes. The route passes through bocage landscapes and follows the Ruisseau de Thorigné on the return journey.
The Ruisseau de Thorigné rises at the Fontaine Saint Martin, flows through the village and empties into the Mayenne. Around 1840, a covered washhouse was built at the never-drying spring for the washerwomen. For centuries, pilgrimages to the spring were organized until the French Revolution.
