Meung sur Loire

1.7. Meung sur Loire<br /> <br /> In the morning we cross the river and start cycling north along the northern bank of the Loire. At first, we ride along a good bike path built along a long flood levee until we reach Le Tetre, where we see the first nuclear power plant of the trip (even though there are 59 in France, we haven't encountered any until now).<br /> <br /> The journey continues on bike paths and country roads following the bank of the Loire to Beaugency (where there is a 22-arch bridge over the Loire) and further to Meung, where it seems there is a market. Mainly vegetables and clothes are sold along the streets in the center.<br /> <br /> At the beginning of the return trip, we try to access the riverside paths, but we have to turn back twice, as the path ends at a fence or a field. Therefore, the return trip takes place almost along the same route as the outbound one.
