dont walk uphill, there is parking near the entrance. Ruins of a medieval fortress. Explore remnants of history, climb the old walls, and imagine life centuries ago. Perfect for history buffs and nature lovers. ???

Beautiful but ruined, within the forest, partial conservation is going on.

A short (but rather exhausting) walk uphill from the parking lot. But it's worth it. The tower has been renovated. The walls are in ruins, but still pretty cool. The road is paved and you can reach the site with a vehicle. There is a small parking lot up there. But beware, the road is pretty narrow. I love places like this, therefore 5 stars.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
