Departure from Mazières-de-Touraine (Indre-et-Loire)
Mazières is a village located north of Cinq-Mars, 30 minutes from Tours. The village centre has retained the charm of the villages of the Touraine region, where life was once devoted to agriculture and forestry. The route passes through the woods of the large neighbouring estates. There are views of the vast rural landscapes. The most charming section is undoubtedly the Breuil valley. A pleasant hike that is never monotonous.
