Walking holidays in the Loire,

with time to visit the châteaux
The Loire was once the playground of kings, and their legacy – elegant châteaux and a rich history – mean that walking holidays in the Loire are about more than walking. We encourage you to visit the châteaux that you pass, and perhaps the odd vineyard, too – you’re not part of a group, and have no luggage (we transfer your bags to the next hand-picked hotel). So enjoy a walk that’s worth it, following our trusted route notes at your own pace.

Where to go walking in the Loire Valley

Probably the main motive for choosing a Loire Valley walking holiday is the châteaux, so we’ve designed our Châteaux & Vineyards route so that it takes in several: romantic Azay-le-Rideau, turreted Ussé, formidable Chinon and small but perfectly formed Montsoreau. You’ll also have chance to visit ancient cave dwellings, museums and Fontevraud Abbey.

Is our walking holiday in the Loire right for you?

If you’re looking for a particularly easy walking holiday, the Loire Valley is an excellent choice, as the terrain is generally flat and the distances reasonably short, plus you needn’t walk every day if you prefer not to. To be sure that it is right for you, check our grading system below.
  • These gentle strolls range typically between 5-10km per day and involve few ascents or descents. Go at your own pace, pause at every opportunity, and take it all in.
  • You don't have to be a seasoned hiker to enjoy these walks, but someone who's happy to take on around 5-15km each day – with the occasional hill thrown in.
  • Expect to cover approximately 10-15km a day, across varied terrain with regular ascents and descents. You'll be challenged in places – but enjoy superb views.
  • Where rugged terrain goes hand in hand with the satisfaction of reaching a peak or high pass. Typically, days range between 7-20km and involve significant ascent and descent.
  • Our most thrilling walks involve full days on the trails, more challenging terrain, and testing ascents and descents, but there's still time to appreciate your surroundings.
  • Choice of easier or harder routes, so that you can tailor most days to your requirements.
