French Alps cycling holiday

Planet

On this holiday we promote the use of a sustainable, non-motorised means of transport, the bicycle, as a means to visiting the region. We respect and support local conservation projects in the area and make sure our clients are aware of the guidlines that may effect them. E.g. not littering.

We also educate them about the flora and fauna that they are likely to encounter. For example, how to behave around a herd of sheep, to inform them that they might surprise deer on the small rural roads and give them indications on how to spot other birds and plants.

All our accommodation providers are chosen according to their professionalism and their approach to responsible tourism. They source local produce, use environmental initiatives , and promote the culture of the region. Several of the gites have strong environmental criteria with regards to recycling and reducing their environmental impact. We are about to make a deal with Gite de France to use their eco certified gite suppliers.

We don’t print brochures and keep paper use to a minimum in the office preferring electronic distribution as our main means of communication with clients.
All our guides and support team are fully trained in environmental sustainability as a part of their diplomas and they educate our clients about the mountain habitat during the activities.
