Mediterranean Route M04

Note: More routes and maps may be added to this page as they become available.

These notes are intended to help you choose which areas to head for. Cycling routes close to Bike Express drop off points are available from the CTC. These routes are scenic, following quiet roads and a few include alternative ‘off road’ sections.


Good access to the Jura mountains (see above) and further east the French and Swiss Alps. For easier cycling head for the plateau of the Dombes (south east of Macon) whose small lakes and marshes are very popular with bird watchers. Or why not explore the hills and vineyards of Beaujolais, the Charollais and Lyonnais mountains and beyond these the Massif Central.
