Tours Castle

Pedestrian and cyclist bridge in Tours

Very pleasant short 35km tour between the Loire and the vineyards (apart from 2km of departmental road)

Great rest stop on the Voie Vert cycle path

Picnic area under the trees and near a bridge and the Cisse.

Great view of the castle. Unfortunately it is difficult to get seats in the bar.
