the HEART OF THE FRENCH RIVIERA Between SAINT-tROPEZ & Bormes-les-Mimosas

In the very heart of the French Riviera in a dream place, cycling distance between Saint-Tropez and Bormes les Mimosas, at the foothills of the Corniche des Maures, facing the Golden Islands. The rocky coast, bordered by pines, alternates between coves and beaches of fine sand. It is from here that we will discover the panoramic roads overlooking the Mediterranean, the Gulf of Saint-Tropez and the villages renowned for the charm of their narrow streets and the exuberance of their flora.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Hotel’s location, few meters away from the Mediterranean
  • Beautiful villages of the French Riviera
  • Cycing rides with views over the Mediterranean
  • Wine tasting (included in the guided version)

    Welcome to the French Riviera

    We will meet you at Marseille Airport at 2 pm before taking you to your hotel in Rayol-Canadel. We take advantage of this first day to adjust our bikes and discuss the stay.

    Night
    Rayol-Canadel

    Bormes les Mimosas LOOP

    We ride along the Corniche des Maures for about fifteen kilometres and then join the Route des Vins de La Londe and the famous Fort de Bregançon before getting to the old village of Bormes-les-Mimosas, which lies on a hillside between the sea and the forest. Its alleys, which smell of plants from diverse and distant origins, are hidden by the pink tiled roofs of the old houses.

    Route 2

    Saint Tropez LOOP

    This morning we set off on a journey along the eastside of the French Riviera. Further on, the old Provencal villages of Ramatuelle and Gassin stand on our way, isolated on their hills of scrubland and vineyards and offering a unique panoramic view of the Bay of Pampelonne, the peninsula and the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.

    We reach Saint-Tropez at the end of the morning, leaving us all the time to discover this picturesque fishing port, its old village, its fish market and its regattas.

    Massif des maures LOOP

    Today we are riding on the very winding ridge roads of the wild Massif des Maures. Under the thick forest mantle of this massif, one of the jewels of the Var department, chestnut trees and hundred-year-old cork oaks reign as masters and in its heart, a few villages live peacefully.

    We finally reach Grimaud, a perched Provencal village overlooking the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. With its charming squares and alleys, Grimaud invites you to stroll and could well be the end of the day unless, in a final effort, we decide to pedal the 25 km that still separates us from our hotel.
