What is cycle tourism ?

It's simply using a bicycle to discover the riches of a territory, alone or with others. From a simple ride to the exploration of a region or even a country, you do your body good without polluting the nature around you.

France: a dream destination for cycle tourism

With its varied panoramas and more than 18,000 kilometres of developed routes, France is a great friend of cycling. There's something for everyone: for time-trippers or Sunday strollers, coastal enthusiasts or sportsmen and women who want to tackle the mountain passes... Want some ideas ?

  • The Véloscénie, which links Paris to Mont-Saint-Michel
  • The Greenways of Brittany
  • The Vélodyssée, which runs along the Atlantic Ocean to the Basque coast
  • The ViaRhôna, which links Lake Geneva to the Mediterranean 
In the Ardèche, in the Verdon, at the Serre-Ponçon lake... Vacances Bleues welcomes you, and it's not by chance !

Vacances Bleues: my cycling partner

As a player in sustainable tourism, we favour solutions that have the least possible impact on the territories where we are established. It is therefore quite natural that we favour cycle tourism. In concrete terms, this means :

  • routes from our facilities;
  • secure bicycle storage facilities;
  • electric bike connections;
  • Most of our hotels have bikes for hire or have agreements with bike hire companies

Cycling with family or friends is the ideal way to experience small or large adventures while strengthening bonds. With a little practice, everyone can enjoy a holiday full of freedom. So, are you tempted?

Anecdote

As the Tour de France often passes near the lake of Serre-Ponçon, some of the teams stop at our place, Les Horizons du Lac. Enough to motivate you to pedal!
Would you like more ideas on how to enjoy this beautiful place? Discover the many charms of the Serre-Ponçon lake, which allows you to enjoy the joys of the sea... in the mountains !
