holidays

Flying to Vienna and cycling along the River Danube to Budapest is a fabulous way to enjoy a family cycling holiday

I was sceptical – would the boys be capable of cycling in the French Alps? There’s only one way to find out…….

During the May Half Term we were lucky enough to go on a family cycling holiday to the French Alps. We stayed in a tiny village called Les Alberts, which is nestled at the foot of the Vallee de Claree, 10 minutes drive from the resort of Montgenevre and the Italian border. It’s in the Hautes-Alpes…

Quite possibly one of the most stunning family bike rides we’ve ever been on (with no climbing but lots of downhill!)
