In the heart of Champagne, characterised by French history, art and culture, you will meet men and women who are happy to share their passion for Champagne, their love for their region and their knowledge. Exploring the Champagne region by bike is a journey rich in diversity, where the whole region is characterised by the presence of the vineyards.
During the trips, it is possible to pre-book champagne tastings, both at major champagne houses and at smaller producers.
For our cycling holidays in Champagne, we have several options: weekend trip, short week or 7 days. If you choose to travel 4 days, you stay all three nights in Epernay. During the 5-day trip you will also stay in Reims, and on the 7-day trip you will stay in a number of places, where you can explore even more of this wonderful region. Read more under the tabs ‘Programme’ and ‘Accommodation’.
The cycling is mostly on small country roads with little traffic. At the entrance to and exit from larger villages/towns there may be a little more traffic.
Difficulty is easy to medium, as the distances are relatively short but also slightly hilly.
