You arrive on your own ground. You leave on new ground.

Fitness

You don't need to be an athlete. You do need to be active, outdoorsy and willing to keep going. The hike is scaled to the group, and the e-bike day makes the altitude manageable. If you can manage a hilly 10–15 km walk, you'll be fine.

Transfers

The group transfer leaves Lyon airport on the first morning and returns on the final afternoon. We share the recommended flight window when you book. If you want to arrive earlier or stay on, just ask and we can suggest options.

Kit

Bring trail shoes, light layers, sun protection and a waterproof. We'll send a full kit list after booking. Bikes and helmets are provided.

Insurance

Your booking is protected by financial failure insurance via EVO through Travel Vault, an ABTA partner. You will also need personal travel insurance with cover for the activities.
