Go on a virtual summer vacation with 10 new routes through France

August 3, 2026

This summer we are offering ten new routes through France, from the historic places Arras and Lens to the rugged coastlines of Normandy and the Atlantic island of Noirmoutier. The variety between impressive nature and rich history makes this collection well worth exploring and perfect for a varied summer vacation.

For the best impression, you can watch the video above. But we are also highlighting two routes for you.

Étretat

One of the most remarkable routes in this collection is Étretat, on the Normandy coast. This location is world-famous for its white chalk cliffs. The rock formations have inspired artists and writers for centuries, and that artistic atmosphere is still tangible today. It is a route that is both calming and impressive.

Passage du Gois

No less impressive is the Passage du Gois. This route follows an elevated road that connects the island of Noirmoutier to the mainland. Twice a day, this road disappears under water due to the tides. Cycling along this remarkable passage, you feel as though you are suspended between sea and land, with the Atlantic Ocean on either side. Nowhere else in France can this experience be found in quite the same way, making it a true bucket list route.
