Know Before You Go

Be prepared for some unpaved sections : in between points 1 and 2, as well as between points 3 and 4, some sections of the circuit use dirt roads.

Unpaved canal banks : drive carefully on these sections to avoid surprises, especially after rain.

Caution along the banks : stay alert and adapt your speed to fully enjoy the setting in complete safety.

Trick : a bike with tires suitable for mixed trails will be a real plus for optimal comfort over the entire route!
