A guide to planning your cycling adventures in France
The "Recto Verso: 100 Cycling Adventures in France" box set is designed to help cyclists choose, plan, and experience their next getaways. More than just a map, it offers a comprehensive method for finding the route that matches your skill level, preferences, and available time.
Featuring 100 tried-and-tested cycling routes, this set allows you to embark on anything from a short few-day escape to a longer journey. The routes range from 2 to 25 days in duration, making it a highly practical tool for planning everything from a weekend trip to a full-scale touring adventure.
It caters to both road cyclists and gravel riders. Whether you are looking for an accessible first adventure or a more challenging route, this set helps you go from the initial idea to setting off, without getting bogged down in hours of research.
100 cycling routes for all levels
One of the set's key strengths is the variety of routes on offer. They cater to all levels, from beginners to expert cyclists, ensuring everyone can find an adventure suited to their experience, fitness, and equipment.
The routes offer a unique way to discover France: quiet backroads, gravel paths, valleys, mountain ranges, countryside, coastlines, villages, wide-open spaces, and lesser-known trails. The goal is simple: to inspire you to hit the road while making the planning process easier.
Each route comes with a GPS track—a real advantage for navigating on the ground and planning your stages with peace of mind.
Cycling travel without cars or planes
This set also promotes a more eco-friendly approach to cycling travel. All routes are accessible via public transport, eliminating the need for cars or planes. It is the ideal resource for those wishing to plan more responsible adventures by using trains or local transport to reach the starting point. This approach facilitates one-way trips, weekend getaways starting from a train station, and journeys that don't require returning to the starting point. It also simplifies logistics—often a major barrier to setting off.
The "100 Cycling Adventures in France" box set is therefore perfect for cyclists who want to explore France with greater freedom, less mental load, and a solid organizational framework.
