General information:

This is a lower 1 cycle holiday

This holiday follows the Loire wine route, along flat tracks and country lanes. Lots of chances for wine tasting.

Location:

The holiday visits Chissay, St Ouen les Vignes and Chitenay.

On this relaxed holiday you pedal along little roads through quiet, timeless countryside in the heart of the great Loire château country.

There are countless castles, from the famous grand châteaux to the lesser known, but equally fascinating, smaller family homes. And, of course, there are lots of opportunities to sample the local gastronomic delights and taste countless wines as you go.

Who would this holiday appeal to?

This holiday would appeal to anyone wanting a relaxed, gentle cycling holiday, with excellent food and wine and beautiful scenery.

Similar to which other holidays?

We think this holiday is similar to our holidays in Burgundy and the Dordogne.

Possibility of non-standard departures?

Non-standard departures are not available as this is a repped region, but the holiday runs every other day.

If extra nights are required during the holiday, it is recommended to have 2 nights at a time. This will ensure Headwaters reps can transfer luggage
