Muides-sur-Loire (Loir-et-Cher, France)

Muides-sur-Loire is a village situated on the southern bank of the Loire, halfway between Blois and Chaumont-sur-Loire. The town follows the rhythm of the river: boats, marshes and beaches mark the summer season. It’s a convenient starting point for exploring the Loire châteaux while enjoying a calm natural setting. Visitors find easily accessible outdoor activities and the atmosphere of a Loire-side village.

Heritage and proximity to the châteaux

Muides’s main heritage asset is its location: the commune is a short distance from the Château de Chaumont-sur-Loire and its park. Roads and cycle paths allow excursions to large estates and neighboring villages. Local buildings mix stone houses and rural constructions typical of the Loire Valley, recalling the region’s agricultural and river history.

Nature and landscapes

The banks of the Loire offer wide views, sandy banks and flood meadows rich in waterfowl. Walks along the river, seasonal wildlife observation points and sunsets over the water are among the simple pleasures. Summer floods shape a changing landscape, ideal for photography and relaxation.

Outdoor activities

The Port de Muides serves as a departure point for boat and canoe outings. The commune is crossed by cycle routes including the Loire à Vélo, convenient for reaching Blois or Cheverny. Fishing, hiking and river beaches complete the activity offerings.
