2022 Guided Cycling Availability
For the 2022 season we have four weeks available. Deliberately timed at the beginning and end of the summer season, they can either be used as a training platform before the summer or as a last flyaway trip before the days shorten.
The GrandFondo special includes entrance to the Morzine GrandFondo classic as day one of the holiday. The difficulty level for each week is determined by the group with the requirement that every rider is at the same level.
