What "paris" suggested is nice. Although it's not the most direct way, it's very beautiful. After Orlean - quit autoroute and drive Nationales only. for detailed planning you can use www.mappy.com. The trip will probably take at least three days (of course, the driving distance is small to cover it in one day, but you won't be able to avoid tentation of spending few hours at each of these castles).
Alternative route would be in a semi-opposite direction - from Paris drive to Reims, again exit the autoroute before Reims and drive thorugh small villages of Champagne, after that head for Strasbourg, from Strasbourg turn south and pass through Alsacian "route de vin" and head for Alps.
Finally, there is a relatively direct way - go from Paris in parallel to autoroute A6 (you won't see much, if you stay on the autoroute itself) - you will pass through Fontainebleau (beautiful chateau there), then Burgundy - Auxerre, Velezey, Chblis, then go to Lyon (have a dinner there!), then continue in parallel to "autoroute de soleil" (I think it's still A6 there), don't miss Orange with its Roman amphitheater (live concerts still take place there from time to time!), then pass through Provence (Ooops, I nearly forgot about Avignon - the papal town. They have a theater festival in July), go to Nice, Monaco - and you're in Italy.
Final advice - if you can, avoid driving on these roads on Saturdays, especially after July 14. It's a nightmare!
Once you decide, which of these three to take, I can help you with details (roads names etc.) or check http://www.mappy.com. |
