Itinerary description
Day 03 Montjean-Sur-Loire to Angers 35.6 km
It started raining shortly after we started today. Rain picked up throughout the morning. Our original plan was to bypass Angers and continue on to Saumur; however, with the rain we decided to head into Angers and find a hotel for the night. Beautiful ride along the Loire then along the La Maine river up to Angers; into town and to the Angers Tourist Information Office (N47.46927° W0.55788°). We used the free Wi-Fi at the excellent tourist office and with a little help from Booking.com we had a hotel for the night just up the street. After checking into Hotel Continental (N47.47032° W0.55229°) it was off to tour the Chateau (N47.47041° W0.55927°) and cathedral. The Chateau houses the “Apocalypse Tapestry” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypse_Tapestry) and is definitely worth a visit! Angers is a very nice town and we are glad the weather forced us to stop here.
