This trip takes you between two iconic European cities, and between two famous European landmarks: The Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Jet d’Eau in Geneva. The route passes quaint French villages, medieval towns, expansive vineyards, wide open farmland, lush forests and alpine passes – The ever changing landscapes really make this trip, and you will experience the ‘off the beaten track’ rural side of France. The riding is reasonably level leaving Paris, following the River Seine for a while, until you reach the wonderful rolling hills of Burgundy, where there of vineyards as far as the eye can see. As you approach Geneva, tackle the Col de Magnard and admire the far reaching views of Mont Blanc, a truly epic final climb.
You’ll stay one night each in Paris, Sens, Avallon, Chalon-Sur-Saone, and Saint-Claude before arriving into Geneva. In Geneva, you can take time to soak up the atmosphere in its many restaurants and cafés or walk along the shore of Lac Leman where you witness the amazing Jet d’Eau fountain.
