Couple’s getaway in Vichy

Between Vichy and Saint-Yorre, a greenway hugs the Allier’s side, offering easy cycling. The Allier is the omnipresent star along this stretch, revealing a variety of sides. Pedalling along beside the water, discover a mosaic of landscapes, heritage treasures along the way inviting you to explore the waterside parishes, with their many activities, shops and riverside restaurants, or guinguettes. Whether travelling solo, in a group or as a family, by bike or by foot, take in all the different atmospheres, landscapes and noises of the Allier, known as one of Western Europe’s last-remaining wild rivers, and make the most of three discovery circuits that add further options to this green outing.
