Drinking water is mapped at 8 points; the longest stretch without is 19.0 km (km 6.8–25.8). 2 of them may be off out of season.

Places are from OpenStreetMap within 60 m of the route (300 m for a landmark such as a château or museum), and climbs from the modelled profile. Nothing here is checked on the ground and opening hours are not known. A good place to stop has food and water or toilets together, nearest the middle of the ride.

Catalogue access does not mean a ride fits your ability or available time. Low traffic stress includes quiet/shared streets, not just separated paths. Check current conditions before you go.
