Make light of the Loire

The Loire, France's longest river, glides peacefully between the grand chateaux and vineyards that line its banks. Sherpa offer a number of independent inn-to-inn walks departing between April and October.

Accommodation could be anything from small B & Bs to substantial hotels. Baggage is carried between hotels so travellers can enjoy the walks with just a day pack.
