Trott in Charente Travel Guide

Trott in Charente offered a novel way to experience the Cognac region, combining the freedom of independent travel with the excitement of off-road exploration. Based in Criteuil-la-Magdeleine, this scooter rental service provided guided tours using all-terrain electric scooters, allowing visitors to traverse vineyards, woodlands, and scenic paths without harming the environment.The experience catered to a wide range of adventurers, with adapted models available for younger riders (10-12 years old). The scooters were equipped with GPS guidance, offering various circuits that differed in length and starting points. This allowed participants to discover the hidden gems of the Charente region at their own pace, encountering local wildlife and breathtaking landscapes.However, as of January 2025, Trott in Charente has ceased its tourist activity due to increasingly restrictive legislation. The owner, Marion Pageaud, has made the decision to sell all of the equipment. While the original Trott in Charente is no longer operating, the spirit of exploring the Cognac region in an innovative and environmentally conscious way remains, and other similar options may become available in the future.
