The section from Orleans to Nevers houses the transition from the Royal Loire, with the Château de Sully, and the wild Loire that mankind has tried to tame and exploit by building canals and canal bridges.

The port of Les Mantelots belongs to the “commune” of Châtillon-sur-Loire. It has a magnificent lock that allows boats to continue along the river to Briare.
