May 19, 2023,Rando VTC - Boucle Saumur Candres sur l'itinéraire des bords de la Loire

Super walk from Saumur taking the route along the banks of the Loire. We took the hillsides and it's really worth it because we drive in the middle of the vineyards with great views. Do not miss the troglodyte course on the way back. A nice walk
