COTE D'AZUR BIKE RIDE


 

 

 

 

 

 

In Brief

 

 

This Ride explores the coast of the French Riviera between Nice and Toulon. Despite the popularity of this coastline we have created a beautiful route which takes in much of this fabulous coast and the hills behind. We shall visit coastal resorts such as Antibes,  Cannes, St Raphael, St Maxime and St Tropez all of  which conjure up the splendour of a time gone by. These vibrant resorts are complimented by some remote stretches of coastline, the hillsides of which are peppered with villas of all descriptions.

 As a complete contrast, cycling through the wooded hills behind is another world of narrow winding roads, grand vistas and quaint ancient villages. We will also visit an isolated wine growing chateau. 

We will spend each of the 4 nights in a different coastal resort in good 3*/4* accommodation with swimming and leisure facilities  in most cases.
