Quick ride by bicycle from Bourg-Saint-Maurice to Séez

Here’s a sweet little spin in the French Alps: Start out in Bourg-Saint-Maurice, a lively mountain town known for its access to world-class ski resorts and the scenic Vanoise National Park. You’ll roll out mostly on smooth asphalt and quiet cycleways, so it’s a chill ride. Expect a light climb—about 86 meters up, so you’ll feel it but it won’t knock you out.

It’s only about 4.3 km to Séez, your finish. Séez is a cozy alpine village perched at just under 900 meters elevation. It’s a peaceful spot and a perfect place to take a break, maybe grab a pastry at a café. Most of your ride keeps you off the busy roads with a good mix of dedicated cycle paths and quiet streets, though a short stretch cuts through a pedestrian area. Enjoy the fresh mountain air—and don’t forget to look up at the surrounding peaks!
