But you can also schedule your visit to this pretty flowered village by doubling it with a summer cultural activity thanks to the small theater ‘Le Lupigastois’ which is launching a new show season. From Saturday July 9 at 8:30 p.m., Les Souillés de Fond de Cale, a dynamic Breton group, performs sea shanties. On Saturday July 23 at 8:30 p.m., 2 plays by Tchekov by the Trio Impromptu: l’Ours and Le Tragédien in spite of him. Saturday, August 27 at 8:30 p.m., comedy “But where did Darwin go?” by the Apple Tree Company. Where it is about Sarah Bernhardt, a journalist, an anxious theater director, a coffin …. with humor. Snacks before the shows.
I suggest that for this Saturday 25 and whenever you want during the summer, I suggest that you take the topo-guide to the Mayenne on foot with you, which gives access to many sensitive natural areas managed by the Mayenne Departmental Council. It is circuit 16 which is 7.5 km long and which you can cover in 2h10 with a long course on the shores of Lake Haute-Mayenne. which covers the deep valley of our river Mayenne and its tributary Varenne for an area of 123 ha and which retains a useful volume of 123 million m3 of water. Its main purpose is to support the low water level of the river to guarantee the water needs of populations downstream. A hydroelectric plant is installed on the Saint-Georges-de-l’Isle dam. At the water’s edge, children will enjoy crossing the lake on a long footbridge. If you are quiet, you may be able to observe the kingfisher lying in wait to feed. After emitting a metallic cry as it skims the water, it dives to capture the prey it has spotted. And for the eyes, the aquatic flora is abundant.
If the effort tempts you as a family, go up the railway line from the old station on a draisine which goes up to a viaduct.
