6 châteaux around Chenonceaux

Many of these buildings are private and cannot be visited; the public registers record protection, not opening times. Check each château's own website, or the local tourist office, before travelling. Distances are straight-line between the recorded coordinates, not driving distances.

A guide, not a timetable: six stops, spread over the distance above. Several are private and can only be seen from the road, which makes for a shorter day than the number of stops suggests.
