Europe Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

This asymmetrical modern design bridge was built between 1998 and 2000. It connects the city of Orleans to the Loire by bike and offers in each direction a wide cycle path separated from motorized traffic.

Orleans

Highlight • Other

Prefecture of the Loiret department and capital of the Centre-Val de Loire region, Orléans is a large city that welcomes thousands of visitors every year. Between the via Turonensis (path of Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle which connects Paris to Saint-Jean-Peid-de-Port), the GR 3 or the Loire à Vélo, the city continues to seduce lovers of activity while roaming.

As the former capital of the Kingdom of France, Orléans recalls great chapters in the country's history. Clovis or Joan of Arc belong to the illustrious characters who marked the city.

As a large metropolis, you find all the necessary amenities to satisfy your adventure. Every day, trains leave the city center station (not to be confused with the more remote Aubrais station) in the direction of Paris.

On May 7th Joan of Arc rode forward. Struck by an arrow and thrown from her horse, she remained on the field. This impressed her comrades-in-arms and increased the army's combat readiness. A day later, the English withdrew from the position that had become hopeless. May 8th is celebrated in Orléans as Liberation Day.
