세르돈 최고의 사이클링 경로

The old Canal de la Sauldre, once built to transport wood, lime, and peat, meanders through the forests of the Sologne. Today, the water is calm and wooded, but the old locks, bridges, and towpaths still reveal exactly how it once worked. It's an ideal walking route.

This lock was once part of the Canal de la Sauldre. Water from the Étang du Puits was regulated here to allow ships to pass and maintain the canal's water level. Now it's simply a beautiful spot to pause for a moment...

The lake covers 180 hectares, making it the largest in the Sologne. Originally created in 1864 to supply the Sauldre canal with water. Now partly developed as a recreational area: beach area, hiking trails, water sports (sailing, ski-nautique, pedalo), and an ornithological reserve. For nature lovers: you'll find a rich bird life (cendré heron, grèbe huppé, etc.) and diverse flora along the banks. For families: picnic areas, a beach area in the summer, and playgrounds.

Castle built during the Renaissance by Robert Stuart then Louise de Keroualle, Duchess of Aubigny and Porsmouth. Only the facade and one of the two wings exist today. It is one of the major witnesses to the historical presence of the Scots in this city of character. It can be visited and is worth a look, notably with the ceiling of its large room which is all made of wood, shaped like the hull of an upside-down boat. Good to know: Franco-Scottish festivals take place every year in July.

Canal which connects Blancafort (Cher) and Lamotte-Beuvron (Loir-et-Cher) and is 46,810 km long. It is the only canal in France not attached to any waterway, designed to improve agriculture in Sologne with drainage, irrigation and earth transport functions. Its construction began urgently in June 1848, after a vote by the National Assembly which wanted to occupy the Parisian workers left behind by the closure of the National Workshops.

The largest pond in Sologne which combines rich natural environments, with fauna and flora that can be admired for hours, and facilities conducive to relaxation and swimming, with its beaches and activities on offer.

One of the 22 locks of the Canal de la Sauldre. The Etang du Puits, with an area of 180 hectares, served as a buffer reservoir for the canal in order to supplement it with water when the Sauldre was not enough to supply it.
