La Ligne Verte Mountainbike-hotel-tours Mountainbiking tours in Southern France

  • Light to moderate off-the-road  biking.

  • Active vacation tours mountain bike trips meant for those who prefer biking off the road and enjoy quite an amount of climbing. Taking the bike on the shoulder is reduced to a minimum.

  • Sporting vacation tours made for the 'real' mountain-bikers, who like steep and rocky trails. Strong climbing and taking the bike on the shoulder are regular challenges. Very good physical health required.
    The length of mountain-bike trips varies from about 30 (light tours) to 40 (active) and 60 (sporting) km a day.

  • The tracks on the Causses (Limestone plateaus are on farmers roads ,unpaved and marked for mtb trails. The tracks are flat to hilly on the plateaus; but to climb up the causse (elevation gains of 400m) you take paved roads. The tracks in the other parts (as the tracks of the M41) are  on single and double tracks marked for walking. These tracks are more difficult (more ups and downs of 50m elevation gains) therefore 40 - 50 km a day is the maximum.  No dirty roads, sometimes on rocky track. We can adapt the routes as you want and make you a tailored trip.

  • The weather in late July-early August is warm to hot (25-30 degrees Celsius). But on the Causses above 700m is is not that warm and in Tarn valley it is cooler too.
