A network of 180 km of "Voie Verte" and "Veloroutes" sling through soft countrysides and more challenging paths for mountain bikes are present. The "Voie Verte" goes 65 km between Givry and Charnay-le-Macon and used to be a train track, providing easy, safe and interesting alternatives to visit the area. Think about bringing your swimsuits and picnic baskets for the many river stops. Skates and tandems are also available for hire from St. Gengoux-le-National nearby, and all facilities are at hand.
