Hey Cyclists,
Going to cycle down to the City of Light between Christmas and New Year’s Eve, to be right on time for the fireworks. Who would like to join?
I found a very nice and detailed book from Cyclingeurope with maps and information for the entire route.
Route:
26th Amsterdam – Den Bosch, 97km
27th Den Bosch – Diest, 96km
28th Diest – Dinant, 92km
29th Dinant – Vervins, 97km
30th Vervins – Pierrefonds, 95km
31th Pierrefonds – Paris, 85km
Trekking bike or similar is recommended. I am not a hardcore cyclist, but did a trip of similar distance last winter.
Hotels and B&Bs along the route will cost between 40 and 80 euros per night.
Travel back to Holland with bike on train is possible but not with the high-speed Thalys.
Hope to hear from you!
Regards,
Marcel
