Cicerone: River Rhone Cycle Route: from the Alps to the Mediterranean - 895 km
Deze route is sinds 2017 volledig bewegwijzerd. Zeer aantrekkelijk natuurlijk, om te fietsen van het Meer van Geneve naar de Middellandse Zee. Eventueel kunt u zelfs starten in Zwitserland bij de Furkapas. Grotendeels loopt de route door het Rhone dal. Het eerste stuk is echt wel wat zwaarder om te fietsen. Er is ook een Nederlandstalige gids van deze route. De route is onderdeel van de Eurovelo 17.
Van de site van de uitgever Cicerone:
Guide to The River Rhone Cycle Route, an 895km bicycle ride starting high in the Alps of central Switzerland and finishing at the Mediterranean Sea, near Marseille. The route - which is mostly downhill - is divided into 20 stages (averaging 45km per stage) and can be completed by most cyclists in 12-14 days. The described route uses two waymarked national cycle trails: the Swiss R1 Rhone Route and the French ViaRhôna, which together have been adopted by the ECF (European Cyclists' Federation) as EuroVélo route EV17.
The guide provides detailed route descriptions and 1:150,000 mapping for each stage, together with plenty of practical advice such as preparing for the journey, transport options there and back, what to take, accommodation en route and more. A Swiss/French glossary is also included.
Taking in dramatic mountain vistas, Lake Geneva's enchanting beauty and the coastal delights of southern France, the route showcases some of the region's most spectacular scenery, making it a veritable gem for any tour cyclist looking to stretch their legs in stunning surrounds. If a visual feast is not enough, cyclists can indulge in the gastronomic wonders of the region. And need we mention the fact that the Rhone flows through some of the greatest wine producing regions of both Switzerland and France?
