3/ Hop on your bike and head towards St Saviour, then continue to the town of Bishop and Trinity, two picturesque villages renowned for their historic buildings, traditional cottages, and churches. On the return journey, you'll pass by Queen's Valley Reservoir at St Martin, where you can stop for some birdwatching.

4/ a short trip to Bouley Bay and return to St Helier via Victoria Village and the Grands Vaux reservoir.

Ferry transfer during the day followed by a taxi transfer to your hotel upon arrival. You will pick up your rental bike in Guernsey and, depending on your arrival time, ride towards Jerbourg Point and the south of the island. You will stay for 3 days in Guernsey, in St. Peter Port.

There is a map with the 10 main cycling routes you can do on Guernsey. It is also possible to combine them.

Among the various possible bike rides:

1/ The Torteval region, a charming village located on the southwest coast of Guernsey.

2/ A loop around two superb valleys: Talbot Valley and Fauxquets Valleys.

3/ Walk towards Pointe de Jerbourg and the South of the island.

4/ Bike ride to discover the interior of the island.

Departure from your hotel to the ferry terminal (for Sark). Upon arrival, you will travel to the island's center by horse-drawn carriage pulled by a tractor (a 1 km journey between the port and the village). Sark is the smallest of the Channel Islands: it is 5 km long and 2 km wide and is bordered by cliffs. The island's upper reaches are relatively flat. There are no cars on the island, except for tractors used to pull carts and for agricultural purposes.

If you wish, you can also visit the gardens of the Lordship where the Lord resides, who is the sovereign on the island, receiving his instructions directly from the British Crown.

A visit to Guernsey without stopping at Hauteville House (Victor Hugo's house) is unthinkable, as is Castle Cornet with its four museums. Depending on your departure time, you can take a final bike ride and explore the island's interior before catching a ferry back to St Malo.
