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.
When nature matches its colors to the seasons, the trails become… magical! Take a safe walk on the marked paths and discover our favorite hikes, granted at each time of the year. Along the walks, the essence of Saumur characterizes the stages. Mosaics of vineyards, enchanting panoramas over the Loire, troglodyte passages and emblematic monuments will be your traveling companions.
The GR® stage in Dampierre is a hilly playground that we love in the spring for the fresh tint of the vineyards we cross. A true concentrate of Saumurois, the walk gives grandiose glimpses of the Loire, the troglodytes on the hillsides, the wine estates or even superb mansions steeped in history.
Some freshness ! This is what this 8 km loop that crosses the charming village of Rou-Marson promises. Renowned for its castle, its troglodyte remains and its fouées, Rou-Marson is a wooded town with a remarkable historical heritage. In summer, we appreciate its pond, the atmosphere of its fountains-washhouses, or its land art course under the trees!
Famous for its royal abbey, Fontevraud has many other assets. In the fall, its forest welcomes you for a walk full of scents and colors specific to the undergrowth.
In this circuit of almost 9 km, several surprises reward walkers (be careful, it climbs!): a magnificent panorama of the village and mushrooms of all kinds...
In winter, the landscapes of the Loire are magical. Whether it glides calmly through the mist or sparkles like a diamond in a ray of sunshine, the river captures our full attention.
For this 7 km walk in the splendid village of Thoureil, play with the star... Between wedges and hillside, passing through the forest, seize all the profiles of the Loire. And take advantage of the heritage of this Small City of Character which attracts many visitors throughout the year.
