Saumur was built on the basis of a 9th-century castle. It's a pretty little town with a pretty square with half-timbered houses. Nice cafes and a very good bakery on the square.

Superb castle along the Thouet which flows into the Loire at Saumur. Many women prisoners, victims of the plague were saved by the inhabitants of Montreuil-Bellay horrified by the conditions of detention in the castle.

The roads are very diverse on the way back many country roads between the corn fields. The way there is varied, through forest, along grapevines, etc. Also a lot of height difference. Quiet trails.
