Eure-et-Loir, France is situated to the north of the Centre (Loire Valley) region, south-west of Paris. There are three regions in this area: the Beauce region, Drouais region, and Le Perche. In the Beauce region, you should visit the Chartres cathedral, a protected world heritage site. The town of Chartres itself also contains a delightful old town centre worth visiting. You should also visit the working windmills as you explore the Beauce region, especially the one at Ymonville with an unusual ‘wooden clapboard’ design. Another not-to-be-missed town is Illiers-Combray, south-west of Chartres, one of the places that the writer Marcel Proust used as a setting in his novels. The Drouais region is the northern part of Eure-et-Loir around the town of Dreux and hosts an imposing renaissance style castle, The Chateau d'Anet. The Le Perche region is in the west of the department around Nogent-le-Rotrou and also in the neighbouring Orne department (part of the Normandy region) - see Le Perche for details. Climb to the top of the Château Saint-Jean in Nogent-le-Rotrou to marvel at attractive views across the town centre rooftops. Senonches, one of the most important towns in the Perche Regional Natural Park, is surrounded by extensive forests, making it a scenic spot for walking and cycling.
