Cycle Path Along the Canal de Briare

Highlight • Cycleway

Here is the entrance or exit, depending on your route, of a long cycle path covered with good bitumen to mark the eurovélo. You can commit to it for several tens of km.

The Loing

Highlight • River

South of Nemours, there are about 15km of unpaved track. After these 15km, it is paved and of good quality until Briare I think (we stopped at Chatillon-Coligny).

The seven locks are such a monument that the city was officially named after them in 1978. Why all the effort to lower the canal to such a level? The answer is Henry IV's monumental project to link the English Channel to the Mediterranean Sea. This lock is part of the Briare canal which connects the Loire and the Seine.

Briare Canal Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Very pretty and passable without problem by bike (be careful). With a road bike, favor the downstream side (north west) because it has a paved track to join the road on the left bank.

View of Gien

Highlight • Other

Small town at the gates of Sologne, whose silhouette can be admired from the Loire by bike route. It is worth a detour by crossing the bridge to go through the alleys and climb up to the promontory of the castle.

Sully-sur-Loire Castle

Highlight • Castle

The fortified castle of Sully-sur-Loire is located on the banks of the Loire, along the EuroVelo 6 cycle path. Construction of the current castle began in 1396 but traces of castles on this location date back to 1102. Today , the castle, its moats and its park are perfectly maintained and it is possible to discover them alone or on a guided tour.
