In a few words

Embark on a gravel bike adventure in the heart of the Vosges Mountains, nestled between lakes and fir trees. For a long weekend , we welcome you to the middle of the La Bresse forest for three days of exploration, starting from our base camp. This mid-mountain range, located in eastern France, is one of the most beautiful French destinations for gravel riding. Our local guide will help you discover the region in depth and take you on the best gravel routes! We take care of everything: accommodation, gourmet meals, an expert guide, a support van, yoga sessions, and rental of high-end gravel bikes. The spirit of the trip? We leave together, we return together. An authentic adventure where conviviality and the joy of riding take precedence over performance. You'll begin this adventure at the foot of the Vosges mountains in a unique, family-run estate. Your hosts will be eager to share the history, culture, and heritage of the surrounding area with you. You'll follow the course of the Moselotte River, admiring the gentle slopes of the Vosges Mountains and their rounded peaks overlooking a dense spruce forest. Local innkeepers and shopkeepers will be eager to share their region with you on this long journey. Unwind and enjoy moments of well-being (yoga, meditation, relaxation) to make the most of this experience in a stunning natural setting. A little taste that will surely pique your interest? Discover the charm of the Vosges during this unique and unforgettable adventure!
