Loire River

The Loire River, a World Heritage Site, is part of a very historic and symbol region in Europe, the Pays de la Loire. Its shores bathed dozens of medieval and Renaissance castles, endless valleys and beautiful vineyards. The Loire is more than a river. The locals are very interested in caring for the natural environment, and it is a true way of life for them. Source of inspiration for poets and writers, the Loire has given birth to its margins cities such as Nantes, Saumur or Angers. From the junction of the river and the environment are born great leisure activities as "La Loire à vélo", a nice way to see the Loire and cultural heritage cycling.
