I'm looking for a 10-day tour in France, with a moderate level of walking, without serious climbing. I'd like to stay in small hotels or B&Bs, and I'd like to see some of the countryside, and some of the small towns. I'd like to be able to walk 10-15 miles a day, with some hills, but nothing too steep. I'd like to be able to walk on some of the old pilgrimage routes, if possible.

I'm looking for a 10-day tour, with a mix of walking and sightseeing. I'm not a serious hiker, but I'm in good shape and can walk 10-15 miles a day. I'm looking for a mix of scenery, history, and culture.

I'm thinking of the Loire Valley, but I'm not sure if that's too far south. I'm also thinking of the Dordogne, but I'm not sure if that's too far west.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I'd suggest the Loire Valley.  It's a great area for walking, and there are lots of castles and other sights to see.  You can also take a boat ride on the Loire River.
