Orléans is a city you run along the Loire, the longest river in France. The quays and the levee unroll flat, sunlit kilometres, Île Charlemagne offers its lake and green loops, and the La Source floral park hides the source of the Loiret to the south. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Loire banks at dawn, the Île Charlemagne loop, the floral-park avenues, the Orléans forest tracks. Not a standard circuit: one hour with an Orléanais who knows the good, flat, rolling paths and the right tempo along the river.
