Hop on your bike and see France
|
The best way to really see France is by bike and this vast country offers so much to see and do. Discover rugged castles, fairy-tale châteaux and serene monasteries. Ride alongside idyllic rivers and through fields of sunflowers on quiet lanes. Take the tow paths beside canals that were once the transport hub but are now merely used for pleasure. From Normandy in north to Provence in the south and everywhere in between, there's a cycling holiday to suit all levels of fitness. You don't have to be as fit as Cadel or Lance to get on your bike and enjoy France!
