La Cyclo Bohèmeas an alternative route in Touraine
For a new cycling holiday in Touraine, another world is possible… or at least, another cycle route, dotted with numerous points of interest. Connected to La Loire à Vélo (at Chenonceaux and Azay-le-Rideau), the Cyclo Bohème offers an alternative route to cross Touraine from west to east, via the south. Do you follow?
Azay-le-Rideau, a listed tourist resort, lends itself to being the starting point for your expedition. On the first day, warm up with a round trip to the château de l’Islette, the Cité Rétro-mécanique Maurice Dufresne, the village of Bréhémont and the château d’Ussé. On the following days, follow the Cyclo Bohème signs to the musée Balzac, the Domaine de Candé, the fortress of Montbazon, then Cormery and its abbey and of course, Loches and its royal city!
The plus points of the Cyclo Bohème
A particularly quiet and bucolic route, with few crowds on the route or at the visitor sites. A real greening-up, epitomised by the garden village of Chédigny, for example!
