La Loire a Vèlo
Cycle Along The Shores Of The Loire River
What could be more gentle than cycling along the shores of the Loire river. This cycling route is 800km long but you are never more than 40km from a delightful village or town with accommodation, food and relaxation. As you cycle along you will find deserted beaches, immense sandbanks, oxbow lakes, egrets, herons and much other wild life and, of course, get incredible views of the many chateaux along the way.
If you buy a house in Loire you can do the cycle route a little at a time, after all you could have the rest of your life to enjoy living in this delightful part of France.
