Your cycling tour is going perfectly…
But don’t miss out on a few essential breaks.

Here are some not-to-be-missed places to visit on the Loire by bike route

-

A walk through the old fortified town of Jargeau, liberated by Joan of Arc. Download the leaflet to follow the tour and discover her various memorabilia: the 1898 statue in the Place du Martroy; the Porte Madeleine, the place where she was wounded; the Collegiate Church of Saint-Etienne with Joan of Arc’s altar and the decorative composition by O.D.V. Guillonnet in the Choir.

 

A soothing and refreshing walk through the rhododendrons and remarkable trees of the Parc départemental de Châteauneuf-sur-Loire, not forgetting its exceptional port (the 5th largest port on the Loire in the days of the Loire Navy), whose history will be told to you at the Musée de la Marine de Loire in Châteauneuf-sur-Loire.

 

Last but not least, experience the Loire yourself aboard a traditional boat
for a trip on the Loire with The Passeurs de Loire.t
