Playing in Amboise
The royal castle of Amboise stands on a rocky spur above the Loire: the whole centre lies at its feet. From there, sloping streets lead down to the river, the embankments and the Clos Lucé, the home associated with Leonardo da Vinci. The town is small, everything is done on foot, and the Renaissance theme fits naturally for a trail game with family or friends.
The streets leading to the castle are sloping and sometimes cobbled: plan suitable shoes. For visitors with reduced mobility, keep the route to the embankments, which are flat.
Three route ideas in Amboise
Leonardo da Vinci, inventor and curious mind
A route around the Clos Lucé and the neighbouring streets, with riddles inspired by observation, engineering, mechanics and drawing. A theme made for children keen to understand how things work.
The climb to the castle
Teams set off from the embankments, climb to the royal castle by the steep streets and look at ramparts and towers on the way. The slope gives the game a sporty rhythm.
Loire embankments and the île d'Or
A gentle walk along the Loire: riddles about the bridges, the embankments and the birds, as far as the île d'Or. A good choice for families or groups of seniors.
