Hi Komoot'ler, here in Metz I wanted to cycle again. The V70 caught my eye in my map.
velo-territoires.org/actualite/2017/12/11/de-loire-a-mediterranee-v70-trace-sillage#
I followed the route for 25km and back on other paths along the canal. The river landscape in this area is uniquely beautiful and highly recommended. I didn't know anything about the V70 beforehand. Is a tip for all cyclists.
