Tips from the Community

Rianne
September 20, 2025, Château de Chenonceau

Did you know: During the First World War, the castle was converted into a hospital for wounded soldiers by its owner, Simonne Menier (of the Menier chocolate family). – Long rows of camp beds lined the large gallery above the Cher River. – More than 2,000 wounded were reportedly cared for within the castle walls. A bizarre contrast: the ornate Renaissance halls as a place for bandages, operations, and recovery.

September 20, 2025, View of the Cher River

The Cher is a French river, which flows through the departments of Allier, Cher, Creuse, Indre, Indre-et-Loire, Loir-et-Cher and Puy-de-Dôme, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Centre-Val de Loire and Nouvelle-Aquitaine regions.

The trail leads through extensive vineyards. In Lussolt-sur-Loire, you can enjoy typical local food at the small Esperuette restaurant right along the trail. There are many small, living and dead, old wineries nearby. A must-see is the Château Le Clos Luce, where Leonardo da Vinci spent the last three years of his life. A beautiful tribute to his discoveries and achievements.

This pleasant little square is bustling with activity. The terraces offer a warm welcome in the shade for a refreshing drink or a snack. It's the perfect place to take a break on your way to Chambord.

The Cher River bike path is fun. However, in some places it's more of a single track, requiring concentration and avoiding many potholes.
