[FR] La Voie Verte relie les communes de Reugny, Chançay, Vernou-en-Brenne et Vouvray. Il s’agit d’un itinéraire réservé aux piétons et aux cyclistes qui se situe sur l'ancien tracé de la voie de chemin de fer (fermée en 1972) qui allait de Vouvray à Sargé-sur-Braye (Loir-et-Cher) via Château-Renault. La Voie Verte fut inaugurée le samedi 24 mai 2014.
En se promenant sur la voie, on peut découvrir ce beau château d'eau en pierres. Il est sur le terrain d'une ferme. Pas très haut (une vingtaine de mètres), la partie supérieure porte l'inscription CHANCAY.
