Crossed by the famous wild river that carries the same name, the Loire département offers visitors a great variety of landscapes ranging from the hills, plateaux and mountains of the Pilat mountain area, to the mountains and plain of Forez, through the Loire gorges. Besides these beautiful natural sites, the Loire is also home to a beautiful built heritage, namely châteaux, religious buildings, medieval villages and Saint-Etienne, a City of Art and History.
