Gravel grind from Geneva to Aix-les-Bains

Somewhere between road cycling and mountain biking, gravel cycling is the ultimate in flexible riding. It has really taken off over the past few years and the Savoy region has some brilliant routes. If you want to enjoy some of the best scenery the area has to offer whilst riding these gravel trails then this is the tour for you!

Depending on whether you choose to rent bikes with us the route will either start in Geneva or from our office just outside Geneva in Gaillard. The route begins by heading south, skirting along the Swiss border and winding its way down to Annecy. Leaving the ‘Venice of the Alps’ the next day the tour continues south along the stunning Lake Annecy arriving into Saint Pierre d’Albigny. After a memorable overnight stay in the quite simply magical Château des Allues you will ride west towards Lake Bourget through Chignin and Apremont, some of the most famous wine growing areas of the Savoy region. After passing through Chambéry the tour concludes by riding along the banks of Lake Bourget and arriving into Aix-les-Bains.
