La Route des Grandes Alpes
Listed under Soft Adventures in Rhone-Alps, France.
La Route des Grandes Alpes runs from Thonon to Menton and is opened from June to October. This route was designed to mimic the route created in the early 1900s by the Touring Club de France - a road where bicyclists, bikers and motorists can experience magnificent open skies and staggering views of the Alps. While travelling, stop at the various villages along the way and get a real taste of Alpine culture.
