Discover Charente Maritime from the inside! Go for a ride on our all-terrain electric scooters. On your way, you will come across forest trails, but also paths crossing wine-growing lands. You will be able to explore our rich natural and built heritage by moving at your own pace
3 routes are available to you
- Vineyard trail (1 hour – relatively easy flat): throughout your route, you will walk alongside the vines and travel through the Borderies terroir, one of the prestigious vineyards dedicated to the production of Cognac. This route offers some very beautiful views!
- Getaway between woods and valleys (1h30 – hilly and sporty route): discover a wide variety of landscapes and set off to explore the surrounding nature of Fontdouce. Valleys, undergrowth, wine estates, at each stage your view changes!
- Circuit of the 13 fountains (2 hours – flat and long route): this circuit allows you to explore the small heritage of the surrounding area. Washhouses, springs, wells and fountains will stand on your way. This circuit also allows you to cross some small, quiet and welcoming hamlets. We strongly advise you to stop for a picnic on your way to enjoy a moment out of time by the water.
