MONACO

An historic City with a green future

Monaco and its surrounding area is a stunning place for a bespoke cycling experience. Your journey starts in the intense city vibe and in less than 30 minutes (cycling) you are out on the quiet, secluded roads and enjoying the fantastic scenery of France or Italy. Monaco and the area around is one of the few places in Europe where you can cycle the whole year around.

As Monaco is very close to Italy, much of a time is spent exploring there and the bike path that runs alongside the coast between San Remo to Imperia is fantastic. This is where the first stage of Giro d’Italia was held in 2015. Poggio and Cipressa are the two final climbs in the spring classic Milano-san Remo.

The mountain bike routes around Monaco have also shaped many a champion, Nico Vouilloz and Fabien Barel just to name a couple. The mountain bike trails are varied from beginner level to very challenging levels, with our favorite route being either Col de Turini and Via del Sale.

Amazing Scenery

You will be dazzled and amazed at every turn! From the historic old town to the stately Prince's Palace and the famous Place du Casino, discover the Principality through the many walks, green cycle routes and picturesque gardens. Every step you take, or indeed stroke of the pedal, you are rewarded with enchanting sites and stunning views as Monaco's rich history and natural beauty unfolds before you.

Within minutes of leaving the centre of the principality you can cycle some amazing flatter coastal routes that wind their way along the Riviera, or for the more adventurous you can venture into the hills for the stunning views and conquer the steep mountainous climbs and passes. As you pedal your way through the mountains, gorges and medieval villages you’ll come across local produce such as olives, grapes, figs and lemons – some on farmland, much of it growing wild.

Environmentally Friendly

As we enter a more environmentally conscientious future, the same roads that once made those racing heroes are now being taken over by a different champion of the road: Formula One champions, F1 team owners, Olympic and world class cycling champions are all swapping their marques for cycles and falling in love with the twists and turns of this amazing landscape......

You can not get much greener than this, it’s a complete hit on all the senses: stunning views, quiet surroundings, the smell of fresh air, the fragrant scents of lavender, eucalyptus and pine on the breeze, and the amazing feeling of being an integral part of this beautiful countryside. On top of this consider the health issues and you won’t want to do anything else in your spare time.
