We can finally see the Loire! A very pretty passage through the village.

Beautiful Dolmen with picnic area

Follow the path into the woods. Appears very quickly. Please respect this heritage site.

Along the Loire, there are plenty of places to stop and enjoy the view. This is one of them. A pleasant spot to rack up the kilometers by bike.

If you follow the routes, be careful not to end up on a highway without bicycle lanes

With its Petite Cité de Caractère label, Le Thoureil is a small Loire town that undoubtedly recalls the golden age of Loire shipping. The old bargemen's houses display their tufa facades and form a picturesque silhouette at the foot of the hill. Crossed by the GR 3 and the Loire à Vélo, Le Thoureil is a must for your adventures.
