Most of the cycling takes place on quiet rural roads and small village lanes, with very little traffic. Routes may include paved countryside roads, narrow paths, and occasional uneven surfaces.
The itinerary is flexible, allowing our experienced guides to adjust the route according to weather, road conditions, and the group’s ability.
