Im Herzen des Naturparks Loire-Anjou-Touraine genießen wir die Fahrt an den teils wilden Ufern der Loire, aber auch denen des Indre, des Cher und der Vienne. Unseren Weg duch den "Garten Frankreichs" säumen die berühmten Loire-Schlösser, von denen unzählige zum UNESCO Weltkulturerbe gehören: Amboise, Chenonceau, Villandry, Langeais, Ussé, Chinon, Saumur, Angers. Die ruhigen Gewässer, die dichten herrschaftlichen Wälder und die umgebenden Weinberge schaffen ein vielfältiges Mosaik an Eindrücken, dass wir auf einem gut ausgebauten Radwegenetz vollends geniessen können. Schriftsteller wie Ronsard, Rabelais und Balzac, auf deren Spuren wir wandeln, dass die Atmosphäre an der Loire eine ganz Besondere ist.
Tourstart: Treffpunkt mit dem Gepäcktransport ist an Tag 1 um 9 Uhr morgens in Tours (in der Nähe des Bahnhofs). Auf Wunsch können wir für Sie ein Hotel für die Vornacht reservieren.
Die Beschreibung dieser Tour ist momentan nur in Englisch verfügbar. Für Informationen zum genauen Programm auf Deutsch wenden Sie sich bitte direkt an uns.
Beginning in the city of Tours, we follow the magnificent Loire River, taking the time to appreciate the many châteaux and charming country manor houses along the way. The tranquillity of this great river, the longest in France, quickly works its charm with its thickets and leafy hedgerows, its fields and pastures, its isolated hamlets and farms. The river is also an oasis for a large variety of maritime and continental birds. As we reach Montlouis, the small amount of elevation gained so far is enough to offer beautiful panoramic views of the Loire. We then arrive in Amboise, the first notable historical site of our tour. The town has a rich and colourful past with its Royal château and the Clos Lucé, former residence of Leonardo de Vinci. The charming cobblestoned streets and street side cafés offer plenty of opportunities to explore and relax. Night in Amboise.
Distanz: ca. 25 km / Höhenunterschied (positiv): ca. 150 m
We gain a little altitude this morning in order to reach the forest of Amboise which we cross before taking the time to visit the fabulous Château de Chenonceau, built in 1513. After our visit we continue our journey by means of a little known route that offers an unforgettable view of the château from the banks of the Cher. We follow the river along its quiet banks bordered with weeping willows, vegetable gardens, charming country houses and "chalands" (small flat-bottomed barges) on riverside moorings. We reach our overnight stop, Azay-sur-Cher, nestled on the banks of the Cher River.
Distanz: ca. 35 km / Höhenunterschied (positiv): ca. 150 m
The tranquil waters of the Cher lead us gently on to the city of Tours. We skirt round the south side of the city, following the banks of the river, before winding our way through fields and pastures to reach Villandry and its 16th century château, famous for its splendid geometrical gardens. We make the most of the beautiful late afternoon light which sets the château, gardens and water garden ablaze. We then reach the “Bec du Cher”, meeting point of the Cher and Loire rivers. We find ourselves once again on the banks of the Loire, which seems surprisingly large after the previous day’s riding along the comparatively narrow Cher... The "chalands" drift peacefully on the slow current of the river, accompanied by a wealth of birdsong from the abundant variety of birds to be found along the river's banks. We reach a small suspension bridge, enabling us to cross the Loire and join the village and château of Langeais. An optional visit of the Château de Langeais and a stroll through the narrow lanes of the village, dominated by the Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church, before we go to the train station of Langeais. Return journey to Tours by train.
Distanz: ca. 40 km / Höhenunterschied (positiv): ca. 100 m
Ende der Tour: Die Tour endet am Ausgangspunkt in Tours am Nachmittag nach der Rückfahrt mit dem Regionalzug von Langeais (Fahrradmitnahme kostenlos). Auf Wunsch können wir für sie eine zusätzliche Nacht in Tours buchen.

An optional visit of the Château de Langeais and a stroll through the narrow lanes of the village, dominated by the Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church, before we continue our journey along the banks of the Loire. A welcome break in the small port of Bréhémont, with panoramic views from the terrace of its café, before we leave the Loire behind us and head to the banks of the Indre. Fields, hedgerows and thickets of leafy trees give way now and then to reveal splendid country manor houses. We visit the Dufresne Museum, home to an impressive collection of vehicles, machinery and antique objects from the 1850's through to the middle of the twentieth century. A little further on, and in a completely different style, we arrive at the Château de l'Islette on the banks of the Indre. The many “barques” (small boats) entice us to take a tour on the water. The château was host to the tumultuous love affair between the two famous sculptors Camille Claudel and Auguste Rodin, who produced some of their greatest work here. A few more pedal strokes take us to the magnificent Château d'Azay-le-Rideau. Built on an island in the middle of the Indre, the château is one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture, built under the reign of François the 1st. Our tour finishes with a short ride to the nearby train station, where we take the train to return to Tours, end point of our journey.
