Cycling through the Loire valley in the June sunshine
Tips?
If it is hot start early. Our newish iPhone battery was on its knees by midway and it is essential so take a Power Pack for your mobile phone. I would study the proposed route on the GPS app prior to starting - it's sometimes not as obvious as one would imagine. Finally, lots of the smaller villages have little (read nothing) to offer in the way of respite and refreshment so make sure that you have ... (more)Nick Swales

Glorious crossings for exploration of two islands. Varied coastal then riverside walking, jackpot weather, rain broke as we finished in Auray. Swimming each day apart from final day. Peaceful outlook across the water from our rooms at Le Feitan. Celebratory lunch as we finished at Yac’h on the quayside at Auray - superb galette with honey, some grilled goats cheese, walnuts, and little salad.
Tips?
Do buy the two local maps. We extended the final day, and ... (more)Hilary Southall
