France, an ideal playground for cyclists
In France, many regions have towpaths, greenways or roads along the vineyards. Different places for beautiful bike rides and to discover various landscapes. The Tarn-et-Garonne is crossed by the Canal des Deux-Mers Greenway. It is then possible to follow the Garonne Canal and the Canal du Midi. This totally secure trail shelters locks and the plane trees offer the necessary shade for well-deserved breaks around a meal. It is also a road that allows you to stop in beautiful places like Belleperche Abbey or Moissac and its canal bridge over the Tarn. In Alsace, the 85 km long Piste des Forts is a splendid walk where you can go from the freshness of a forest to the tranquility of the canals, where you can discover half-timbered houses in the villages and finally a picnic in the grounds of one of the forts that the Germans built between 1871 and 1918 around Strasbourg. There are also the cycle paths of the Loire Valley, which take place in century-old forests and precious vineyards. To relax your legs, you then walk on the grounds and parks of splendid castles such as Chambord, Chaumont-sur-Loire, Amboise or Cheverny. By the sea, many islands have made cycling the preferred mode of travel, whatever the season. In Noirmoutier or on the island of Ré, the many cycle paths lead cyclists through the tides, along the wild beaches of the Atlantic Ocean and in the heart of small charming villages. All these examples show that the possibilities are numerous and that cycling nowadays occupies an important place in the fields of tourism and leisure.
