La Vagabonde Cycling Collection
A collection of 13 cycling routes.OverviewAbout this collection
La Vagabonde brings together a set of rides that mix smooth tarmac with the occasional gravel stretch and a bit of old cobbles. It’s mostly paved, with short unpaved links, cycleways, and a few path sections. The routes are road‑heavy overall, including some busy roads, but you’ll also find quiet lanes plus the odd pedestrian area and living street through town.
