LA LOIRE À VELO
Saddle up! From Nevers to Paimbœuf in Loire-Atlantique, the "Loire à Vélo" route offers almost 800 kilometers of signposted itineraries. This journey takes you from the beginnings of the royal river to its mouth on the Atlantic coast, discovering places both unmissable and unusual. At your own pace, with family, friends or on your own, hundreds of approved establishments welcome you along the way.
In Maine-et-Loire, the route crosses the department from Montsoreau to Champtoceaux, alternating between cycle paths and little-traveled roads. In Angers, choose between two itineraries: one crosses the city, sharing the road with vehicles, the other passes through Trélazé and Les Ponts-de-Cé, for a more serene atmosphere and verdant landscapes. After Angers, heading towards the Atlantic, discover Savennières and its famous vineyards, or the island of Béhuard, classified as a "Petite cité de caractère", with its open-air church.
Consult the map of the Syndicat intercommunal d'énergie de Maine-et-Loire (Siéml): charging points for electric bikes have been installed on the main stages. Use the free Geovelo app to easily find repair shops and water points.
Join the adventure at your own pace, in complete freedom. To plan your trip, consult the tourist offices or visit the La Loire à Vélo Facebook page.

Le parcourt est plat, bien balisé et serpente en longeant la Loire. Beaucoup d’arrêts car énormément de richesses à découvrir : la nature, les châteaux, les villages et la grande ville de Saumur.
Un lieu unique en particulier : Sauzay Champigny magnifique commune avec des rues souterraines bordées d’habitats troglodytiques.
