Cycling and E-bike Touring Guide - Paris to Mont-Saint-Michel: La Véloscénie and Routes to Explore | Glénat (French)

A complete guide to La Véloscénie, with 10 additional cycling trips of one to three days between Paris and Mont-Saint-Michel.

Exploring a region by bike is an environmentally responsible way to travel. Electric assistance opens cycle touring to more people, whatever the terrain. You do not need to be a highly trained, experienced cyclist to enjoy the places along the way at a relaxed pace, close to nature.

The authors first follow La Véloscénie, the spectacular route from Paris to Mont-Saint-Michel. Major heritage sites, including five UNESCO sites and many castles and abbeys, combine with nature as the route crosses three regional nature parks.

To extend the exploration, 10 specially designed circular routes of one to three days connect to La Véloscénie. These original rides follow small, lightly trafficked roads and greenways. Short stages of about 40 to 50 km, or three to four hours of leisurely riding, leave time for visits and activities along the way or at each stop.

• 10 days for the complete Véloscénie, which can also be divided into several shorter trips.
• 10 circuits of one to three days, for shorter weekend outings or varied rides around the main route.
• 10 days and 450 km on La Véloscénie, plus 20 to 24 days and 900 km of discovery circuits: a combined 30 to 34 days and 1,350 km of travel.
• A comprehensive guide with detailed maps, precise descriptions, downloadable GPS tracks, tourist information and accommodation.
