Carte itinéraire du séjour Itinérance à vélo Blois-Chambord-Cheverny-Chaumont

Day 1 : Blois - Chambord - Bracieux

  • 32 km
Today, cross Jacques Gabriel bridge and follow the Loire river to Saint-Dye-sur-Loire where you will enter the forest of Chambord. Visit this amazingly innovative castle built by Francis the Ist. Then, keep cycling until you arrive at your first hotel.

Day 2 : Bracieux - Cheverny - Chitenay

  • 27 km
Today, take your bikes to Cheverny castle which inspired Hergé when he designed Moulinsart in his famous comic Tintin. After the visit and maybe a walk in its luxurious park, feel free to stop at La Maison des Vins where you can taste some local wines. Then, ride to Chitenay for the second night of your trip.

Day 3 : Chitenay - Chaumont-sur-Loire

  • 20 km
Leave Chitenay using the cycle path to reach Chaumont-sur-Loire. You will need at least 3 hours to visit the whole site: a Renaissance castle - which offers a beautiful panorama on the Loire river -, a park - where pieces of contemporary art are on exhibition -, and the international garden festival which changes every year according to a theme.

Day 4 : Chaumont-sur-Loire - Blois

  • 22 km
For this last day, ride back to Blois along the Loire river. Once in town, take a walk in the old streets before visiting Blois castle which architecture reflects French history. When you are ready, come back to our shop to drop your bikes off.
