Escape for a weekend...
Fancy a weekend alone, as a couple or with family? You want to please and gift an unusual and enticing stay? Don't hesitate any longer and book or gift one of our Destination Saumur Val de Loire weekends and stays.
Lovers of thrills and boosting activities, Saumur Val de Loire has many surprises in store for you! Your stay will be the perfect opportunity to learn new practices and move as much as you want. In a sporty, sensational or festive atmosphere, a wide variety of outings are planned for a well-paced stay.
The destination offers a concentration of sports activities to sprinkle throughout the stay, depending on the expected dose of effort. On the Loire and the rivers, you have to try your hand at nautical pleasures, by canoe or paddle. You can play the modern Tarzan several meters above the ground following the course in the trees. Or explore the entire region on a hike to discover the natural and historical heritage at your own pace: on foot, by bike or even… on horseback!
Seen from the sky, the Loire and its valley are even more wonderful. So take to the skies and try a parachute jump to get your adrenaline pumping! In a quieter variant, but just as sensational, opt for a hot air balloon trip, a must in the region: at sunrise and sunset, the trip is simply unforgettable... Fans of mechanical leisure can nevertheless pick up speed at land with karting or quad activities, and rides in Segway or electric scooter.
Each year, Saumur Val de Loire organizes major events that bring together several thousand people. To beat your record in a friendly and sporty atmosphere, consider registering for the Saumurban Trail or the Marathon de la Loire. And to immerse yourself in the festive atmosphere of the destination, remember the dates of the famous “Anjou Vélo Vintage” to pedal in suspenders and a bowler hat. Or even those of the Grandes Tablées du Saumur Champigny: every summer, the center of Saumur is transformed into a vast open-air restaurant where people come to taste local products, toast and "wine" for two days!
