Sunshine roads
The great mountain-bike crossing of the Préalpes. As soon as the snow has melted the ‘Chemins du Soleil’ provides two unspoilt routes to cross the Préalpes from the Rhône Valley to the Southern Alps and from the Vercors to Provence.
Approved by the Fédération Française de Cyclisme (FFC), this long and attractive route normally takes five to seven days to complete. But its challenging nature should not deter those who wish to take their time, since the numerous places to stay along the route mean that you can do it in as many stages as you want and hence take the time to discover, at a more relaxed pace, this surprising area, its inhabitants and landscape. Every year, in May, the Nature Raid-VTT challenge is put on for those imbued with a competitive spirit!
