ルーローの谷のおすすめツーリングルート

a bit further away from the Loire but a nice forest to cycle through

A charming little town nestled on the banks of the Indre, Montbazon stands out with its medieval character. Its small streets lead to shops of all kinds. The most remarkable remains the imposing fortress in the heart of the city, built from 991 and today accessible to the public. For pilgrims who frequent the Via Turonensis, a number of accommodations, including a campsite on the other side of the Indre, are available in Montbazon.

Very beautiful church in Sorigny full of history.

The church, as was historically the case, is located in the center of the old town of the small village of Sorigny, right opposite the small shop, tobacconist and Café des Sports.

The Chateau de Louroux, or priory of Louroux, is a fortified priory in the 13th century, dependent on the abbey of Marmoutier. The priory housed the Benedictine monks who had the pond dug to provide them with fish and create a water reserve for their mill. The castle can only be visited from the outside.

The Louroux pond site is made up of two ponds: the Reed Pond, which resulted from the construction of a dike by the monks in the 11th century, and the Beaulieu Pond. The natural area of the Louroux pond is a wetland which hosts a great diversity of species. Fish raised in the body of water are the subject of large traditional fisheries.

When you come this way it's worth taking a look over the wall
