France: Velo Vercors WOW Women's Only Week & Weekend

The Women’s Only weeks hosted by Velo Vercors are all about providing an opportunity for women to get together and improve their fitness and stamina in a social environment.

Travelling with your Bike: Bike Bag, Bike Box, or a Cardboard Box?

The area promises Alpine climbs and descents in the beautiful Vercors National Park, beginning with a 27km flatter ride, and building to longer 60km hilly rides, with a 100km flat ride on the final full day.

Each day there are two rides – a faster paced group, and a more leisurely group, and evenings are a blissful affair of home cooked meals and local wine.

Rides promise to reveal stunning views – peach and apricot orchards, waterfalls and rivers, mediaeval villages, and the spectacular Combe Laval – Europe’s largest gorge.

A full week (9 to 16 May) costs £635 per person, and includes accommodation, five accompanied rides, food and transfers, whilst four nights (7 to 11 May) will set you back £530, or £630 with bike hire.
