Gita in bici di un giorno da Blois a Amboise

Enjoy a picturesque ride from Blois to Amboise, two stunning towns set right on the banks of the Loire River. This 42 km route is mostly along peaceful, quiet roads with a handful of gentle hills, making it perfect for a day trip at a relaxed pace.

Blois is a real gem—with its impressive château towering above the river and charming old town streets, it’s worth taking a moment to soak in the atmosphere before you roll out. After that, you’ll weave through classic Loire Valley wine country, passing vineyards, neat villages, and plenty of scenic spots to pause and snack. You’ll see lots of countryside, much of it on well-paved quiet backroads, with a few easy gravel and unpaved stretches that add a sense of adventure.

Your journey ends in Amboise, another highlight of the region, famously home to Leonardo da Vinci’s final years and the magnificent Château d’Amboise. Park your bike, grab a pastry, and enjoy riverside views—perfect reward after your ride!
