From Nice to Lyon: this six-day cycling route links the Côte d’Azur, Provence, Mont Ventoux, Drôme Provençale and the Rhône Valley into one varied bikepacking journey across south-eastern France. The route leads from the Promenade des Anglais through Antibes, Cannes and the Estérel mountains into Provence’s inland country, then continues through lavender fields, wine villages and quiet plateaus to Chalet Reynard on Mont Ventoux. After that come calm roads through the Drôme and the final approach into Lyon. Create a free Rogonneur account and save the full route for your next cycling trip.
