The Loire by bike
Want to go for a bike ride? Want to discover places filled with nature and nourished by culture? “La Loire à Vélo” is made for you!
The Loire à Vélo is a huge tourist cycle route 800 kilometers long, a unique cycle route in France. Laid out in both directions, it connects Cuffy (near Nevers) to Saint-Brevin-les-Pins (opposite Saint-Nazaire). Imagine: it crosses the Center and Pays de la Loire regions. It flirts with the longest river in France, the Loire, this valley of wonders whose banks are an inexhaustible mine of treasures.
The Loire à Vélo constitutes the western section of Eurovélo 6, the major European cycle route. Each year, it attracts more collateral trails: the trails of the Vélacé network and the Vendée coast on the Atlantic coast, those of the Châteaux à Vélo around Blois and Chambord, the “Indre à Vélo”… The Loire à Vélo will give you surely the desire to travel across Europe by bike, for green, cultural and eco-responsible tourism.
