The Loire valley is a charming region of lush countryside, fields of sunflowers, rolling vineyards and of course the great river itself. Known as the Garden of France, the region is fertile, characterised by soft green valleys and lush vineyards producing Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Franc among other varietals.
The undemanding landscape and array of sights and sounds make the Loire a fabulous place to walk or cycle through. Its many attractions mean visitors can take each day at their own pace with plenty of time to soak up the surroundings.
Loire is renowned for its wines - there are hundreds to choose from and all are produced from vineyards stretching along the main course of the river. Tastings can be arranged at the wineries, or the local produce simply enjoyed with a regional dish in the lazy evening sunshine. Paris itself is only one hour by TGV. Wild duck, pheasant, hare, deer, and quail are classics, and fresh water fish such as salmon, perch and trout are favourites.
Specialities include rillettes, andouillettes, tripe, mushrooms, and regional cheeses such as Pouligny St. Pierre and Ste. Filters Map. View Map. Allow Consent Settings. Home Camping France Val de Loire.
