We meet in Folkestone at the Eurotunnel for the start of the Great Escape Adventure. After a short 35 minute crossing we begin our journey along the French countryside to the town of Tinqueux to our first hotel.

After a welcoming briefing our guests can choose either to dine in the hotel for the evening with you tour guides or at one of the local restaurants

The hotel has secure parking for our bikes and is perfectly situated for the start of this Black Forest and Alps adventure.

On our second day of riding we will enjoy the views of the beautiful French countryside for the morning.

​

After stopping for lunch break we then ride north into Germany’s Black Forest along the famous B500 and onto tree lined roads over hill tops revealing amazing valley views and rolling hills that are full of grape vines. 

​

Our penultimate rest stop for the day is on a hillside popular with paragliders, as the hillsides and air streams provide good gliding conditions, so don’t be surprised if you see and hear one or two over your head.

​

Then a short ride to be welcomed by the hotel staff for another relaxing meal at the hotel.

We start the day with an amazing breakfast at the hotel before heading off on the amazing B500 through the Black Forest. This road has been described as one of the best riding roads in Europe.

​

It would be rude not to take a break at a cafe for some Black Frost Gateaux so rest assured your tour guide will do just that.

​

Your reward for the days riding will become all too clear to see once we arrive at our hotel where we will be staying for the next four nights. You will be greeted with a glass of snaps and a four course evening meal.​

Your tour guides will be leading a number of different ride outs from our hotel so you can chose to join them or if you prefer, you could chose to ride one of 9 different routes at your own pace. (Maps and guidance will be provided if you chose this option)

​

Our rides will include a ride up to the Kaunertal Glacia and of course it would be rude not to ride the world famous Stelvio Pass. 

​

The hotel offers coffee and cake in the afternoon in case you feel a little peckish after your days ride and a four course evening meal for dinner.

Today is your second day of relaxation at this superb hotel. Again your tour guides will be leading a number of different ride outs from our hotel so you can chose to join them or again if you prefer, you could chose to ride one of 9 different routes at your own pace. (Maps and guidance will be provided if you chose this option)

​

Our rides will include a ride over the Ofenpass Pass and the surrounding area, but again you can chose a ride of you own (or relax in the spa) if you prefer. 

​

The hotel offers coffee and cake in the afternoon in case you feel a little peckish after your days ride and a four course evening meal for dinner.

The image to the left is of the Livigno Tunnel, this is just one of the many places to visit during your stay.

The image to the left is the road leading up to the Kaunertal Glacier, one of the amazing rides taken during your stay.

This morning as we leave behind the tranquility of you last five nights stay in Austria we head off on some of the best roads that Austria has to offer.  The SS44 Strada Statale is absolutely breath taking.

​

We then ride to Innsbruck for a lunch stop in the old town before continuing north to Garmisch for the evening.

We have a 7:30am start to our days riding covering approximately 269 miles. Riding through Austria and into Switzerland, we travel south of the Bodensee another vast inland lake which straddles both Switzerland and Germany.

​

Leaving the mountains of Austria we will enjoy the rolling hills that are of grape vines. After stopping for lunch break we then ride north into Germany’s Black Forest along the famous B500 and onto tree lined roads over hill tops revealing amazing valley views. 

​

Our penultimate rest stop for the day is on a hillside popular with paragliders, as the hillsides and air streams provide good gliding conditions, so don’t be surprised if you see and hear one or two over your head.

​

Then a short ride to be welcomed by the hotel staff for another relaxing meal at the hotel.

Our penultimate days ride sees us leave the Black Forest and over the border into France as we head off towards the Vosges Mountains .

​

We then ride through Parc naturel régional de Lorraine a sprawling preserve of scenic forests & wetlands, plus medieval ruins & quaint villages.

​

After a stop for lunch we continue the ride to Tinqueux for our final nights hotel.

​

As this is officially the end of the tour a farewell evening dinner will be enjoyed by all.

Today is where the Black Forest & Alps Adventure sadly comes to an end.

​

It is a relaxing day where you can decide what to visit and where to ride.

​

The tour guides will be heading back to Calais where they will board the train back to the UK.

​

You are welcome to join them if you wish.
