Cycle through the wonderful Loire Valley.

This tour heads out from Orléans along a stretch of the Loire to Saumur. Castles and villages provide frequent interludes to the cycling, which is on the valley lowlands and never exceeds 60km a day, best done at a gentle trundling pace to admire the views.  

This cycle trip is not very demanding, though sometimes there are some hilly sections. The daily stages are not very long – always about 50 kms – mostly in the lowlands. The itinerary is mainly on cycle paths or paved roads with little traffic.
