Avrillé

On the outskirts of Angers, Avrillé has established itself as a genuine "park town", where nature and the quality of life combine harmoniously. Awarded the "4 Fleurs" label, the town's appeal lies in the omnipresence of greenery and the diversity of its green spaces, ideal for relaxation and disc...

Spread throughout the area, the parks and gardens make up a remarkable landscape network, offering over 170 hectares of green spaces accessible to all. From Parc Brassens, a vast area for walking and leisure activities, to Parc des Poumons Verts with its pond and tall trees, and Parc de la Haye linked to the Saint-Nicolas site, each area has its own unique atmosphere. This wealth of plant life is complemented by a varied heritage of trees, where local species and remarkable trees coexist.

Committed to an ambitious environmental approach, Avrillé is developing a greening policy that promotes biodiversity and the well-being of its residents. The 11-kilometre "green belt" of woodland, farmland and wetlands gives structure to the area while limiting urbanisation. Shared and family gardens, freely accessible herb gardens, the "fruits à gogo" shared orchard and educational areas also illustrate the desire to bring residents closer to plants and raise awareness of ecological issues.

On foot or by bike, the many discovery trails invite you to explore this city turned towards nature, with its rivers, woodlands and landscaped parks. Nearby, the Terra Botanica plant park extends this immersion, making Avrillé an ideal destination for a green getaway just outside Angers.
