Path along the banks of the Loir towards Gallerande Castle and Pringé.
This undeniably charming route (marked with brown rectangles) offers magnificent views along the Loir River, including the fortified mill of Mervé, the façade of Gallerande Castle, the village of Pringé with its church (frescoes), its manor house reflected in the lake below, and its wash house.
