Saint-Jacques by bike via Vézelay V56: Varzy – La Charité-sur-Loire

By bike, join a historic stage of the pilgrimage to Compostela, where the unmissable Priory Notre Dame de la Charité has dominated since the XNUMXth century. In the Middle Ages, the charity of the monks, who collected pilgrims there, gave the name of the city of the Loire, which continues this tradition, by accommodating itinerants today near the priory site.
From Varzy to Charité-sur-Loire, you will enjoy the hilly and bucolic landscapes of the Nièvre, passing through the peaceful Bertranges forest.
