Sarthe is situated between the Atlantic coast and the Parisian Bassin. To the north, the countryside becomes similar to the rolling hills of Normandy, to the south are the sprawling vineyards of the Loire valley. Sarthe's three main rivers and 465 streams make it a fisherman's paradise. Cultural attractions are widely varied with the abbey at Solesmes, for its Gregorian singing, and the 24-hour motorcar race at 'Le Mans'. If you have the time, perhaps you'd care to discover some of the remaining 200 castles, manors, abbeys and cathedrals that scatter this department.
Easily accessible from Tours airport or any of the channel port landings.
