Very light cycling tour on old railway line,
so almost flat while at 300m alt. being surrounded by hills up to 700m.
When
you bike the whole old railway line up to St. Affrique (8-day tour) you will
ride past 6 railway bridges and through 10 railway tunnels. For holiday makers
who don't like tunnels: you will be able to avoid the longer ones (more than
800m). You will be cycling daily
25 km average through the friendly Valley of the Tarn. Click here for some pictures of your tour in Tarn Valley
You can book this cycling tour in Tarn valley as active package, light or family package or as a very light package. Click on the links above for all details on the other two packages. |
