20,20 km cycling route from Maintenon to Chartres

From the city of Maintenon, the arches of the aqueduct set the atmosphere of this itinerary. It is followed by small roads along the Eure Valley that offer a bucolic and relaxing landscape. A must-see stop on the traditional Santiago de Compostela Way, Chartres overlooked by its cathedral, a jewel of Gothic art, symbolically crowns the stopover on this pilgrimage by bicycle.
