Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Tours do Saumur

Set off from the lively city of Tours, known for its elegant Renaissance buildings and buzzing café culture. This route will take you about 85 km west through the scenic Loire Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage site brimming with vineyards, peaceful villages, and riverside views. You’ll mostly ride on quiet country roads with a good mix of paved and asphalt surfaces—expect some short stretches of gravel and unpaved track for a bit of adventure.

There are gentle ups and downs on the way, but nothing too daunting, with no big climbs (max elevation just under 100 meters). Along the route, you’ll pass charming hamlets and perhaps spot a château or two.

Your ride wraps up in Saumur, famous for its fairy-tale château perched above the Loire and its sparkling wines. Take time to wander the old town’s cobbled streets or check out the impressive cavalry school. All in all, it's a relaxed and scenic ride perfect for soaking up the best of the Loire countryside.
