    The Percheron horse

    With its beautiful gray, white or black-spotted color, the Percheron horse is the emblem of the Perche region.

    Did you know that it can haul up to three times its own weight?

    That is why it was used specifically to work on farms, and for merchandise or public transportation (omnibus, tramway).

      Horse-race tracks in the Perche hills

      Did you know?

      The two only horse-race tracks of the Loir-et-Cher department are both in the Perche-Vendômois area: one in Mondoubleau, and the other one in Savigny-sur-Braye. Several races are organized in the spring, especially trotting races and Percheron horse races.

      If you have never attended a horse race, take advantage of your stay in the Vendôme area to enjoy this experience!
