Walking the crossing helps you understand Blois as a town on both banks rather than only around its château. Look back at the historic center, then toward Vienne; the change in viewpoint is the reward. It is a straightforward addition to a riverside exploration.
What to look for
Cross between Blois and Vienne while reading the old river axis.
Useful to know
Cross toward Vienne and turn back for a view of Blois across the Loire.
