The Loire it’s even better by bike!
The Loire it’s even better by bike!
The Loire à Vélo: a cycle track that’s truly worthy of the name
With an unrestricted view of the Loire and maximum safety for these routes, which are equally well-suited to gentle pedaling as to major cycling tours. From summer 2005, come and discover more than 150 km of safe cycle track between Tours and Angers, and even beyond. Chateaus, abbeys, and small towns – this rich cultural heritage offers itself to you. Don’t forget to linger in one of the open-air cafés known as guinguettes, where you can eat and drink, often to the accompaniment of music and dancing!
