Tourism

Allocating considerable space to dynamic mapping, this website introduces internauts to all the itineraries included in the SRVVV (Schéma Régional des Véloroutes et Voies Vertes / regional plan of long-distance cycling routes and greenways) – currently numbering around a hundred cycling itineraries, with long-distance cycling routes (including “Loire à Vélo”) and 3000 km of bike trails.

Next spring, when the definitive version comes online, the marandoavelo.fr website will enable cyclotourism enthusiasts to:

choose a “turnkey” stay or compose their own stay: personalised itineraries, selected tourism offers, etc.
enjoy the use of specially adapted tourism services, including specialised “Accueil Vélo” accommodation providers and bike rental firms,
refine their choice by area, theme, etc. (filter system),
log onto the website via mobile devices (in French or other languages) for experts and beginners alike,
share their experiences, submit remarks, photos, etc.

The website will be available in four languages: French, German, Dutch and English.

At the heart of a regional strategy

As part of the Regional Strategy for Sustainable Tourism (2012-2015), the Centre Region, has set itself the goal of becoming France’s top cyclotourism destination. Onlining of the marandoavelo website developed by the Centre-Loire Valley Regional Tourism Committee marks an essential stage inthe promotion of eco-friendly travel (by bike, on foot, on horseback or by river). 2015 will see the introduction of a pedestrian component, with horse-riding and rivercraft set to follow in 2016.
