RIDE INFO // Explore the French Riviera Trails
This is the extended, point-to-point version of our Azur Tour. If you choose this adventure, you’ll be amazed by what this international region has to offer. You will discover countless unique trails, small medieval villages, and the constant alternation between sea and mountains. This characteristic is what makes this place so rich in contrasts.
Furthermore, this version is designed to be savored more slowly as we move from one location to the next. During the journey, we will ride through iconic spots like Molini di Triora and Dolceacqua in Italy, as well as Sospel and Peille in France. In fact, these are legendary places where mountain biking history was written and where many world-famous athletes have carved their own stories. Consequently, every descent feels like a piece of MTB heritage.
Are you only free for the weekend? If you cannot join the full 5-day adventure, don’t worry!
