Presentation

Come and enjoy the fresh air in a truly lovely green setting ! Fishing, walking, relaxing... you'll love the Bourgneuf-en-Retz ponds.
Developed in the 1990s, mainly for freshwater angling, this site was once a small stream below the Saint-Laurent vineyards. Today, the site consists of three ponds and welcomes anglers, walkers and families for much of the year.

 The team's favourites :
  • the shaded picnic tables are perfect for a snack break with the children or a picnic in the open air
  • the fitness trail, consisting of around six pieces of equipment, allows you to exercise at your own pace
  • the large lawns for playing rackets or ball games and the two clay pétanque courts
  • The play equipment is accessible to children from 2 years old. With slides of different sizes, a wooden horse, swings and more, children love it and always want to come back to the ponds !
  • The book box is a great place to leave and share your reading material or find some great reads.
  • When it's a bit windy, don't forget your kites.
 
 Good to know :
  • You can walk or cycle around the ponds for most of the year, provided the winter rains have not been too heavy. In terms of distance, the first pond is 2 km around, the second is 1.4 km and the third is 1.6 km. The tour of all three is approximately 4.5 km.
  • Fishing is permitted all year round. Fishing permits are available for purchase on the Loire-Atlantique Fishing Federation website or at the Cave des Salines located in the commercial area of the same name.
  • The two free car parks are accessible all year round, one via the Nantes road (with a height barrier of 2.10 metres) and the other via the Arthon road (without a height barrier).
Make the most of your stop at the ponds to discover the commune of Villeneuve en Retz.
