Family Cycling Holidays in France

Our family cycling holidays in France are designed for children who are confident riding a[AM1.1] bike over the daily distances outlined in the trip notes. Every family is different, so we recommend reading the detailed itinerary or speaking to our team if you're unsure whether a particular tour is suitable for your children.

Our family cycling tours are planned with younger riders in mind, with typical daily stages of around 20–50 km. [PL2.1]This leaves plenty of time to stop for sightseeing, picnics, château visits and refreshments, helping to keep the experience fun and enjoyable for the whole family.

The routes have been chosen to make family cycling in France as enjoyable as possible, using a combination of dedicated voies vertes (traffic-free greenways), quiet country roads and peaceful riverside routes wherever possible. These carefully planned itineraries help families ride with confidence while experiencing some of France's most beautiful scenery.
