On foot, by bicycle
La Dixmeresse has been labelled “Accueil à Vélo” – reception of bicycle travellers. Valérie and Bruno, who practice bike riding too, put a bicycle shed at your disposal with a cleaning station, a stem and many repairing tools.
If you go along the Loire à vélo, we recommend you another itinerary going north between Langeais and Bourgueil. All along this 20-kilometre-long route, you will ride in the middle of vineyards, between castle and abbey.
In summer, hikers and cyclists can go across the Loire on board of a scow in La Chapelle/Loire. It is free.
It is a unique moment to live. Then, you will only have 3.5 km to go in the middle of fields and vineyards to arrive at La Dixmeresse and rest after all these efforts.
Upon request, we can transfer your luggage up to your next step for 35 € – fixed price for 50 km max.
