GRAVEL BIKE TRIP AT MONT VENTOUX

If we mention Mont Ventoux to you, you're going to think ‘Tour de France’, ‘Road bike’, ‘Mythical’, etc... Yes, but not only that, it's also the gravel! Our aim will be to get around it, using gravel roads to avoid contact with other cyclists trying to tame it by road. Our aim is not to make you climb Mont Chauve but to explore the region around it: the Baronnies Provençales.

You'll have the chance to contemplate this 1910 meters high giant from the top of all its little sisters in the Monts du Vaucluse. Whether you're a cycling enthusiast looking for new thrills or a traveller in search of breathtaking scenery, the Vaucluse is the ideal place to enjoy an unforgettable adventure on a Gravel bike.

So get on your bike, strap on your helmet and let's set off on a unique adventure to explore this region where the beauty of nature meets the passion of cycling, leaving you with lasting memories of this magical getaway.

Here are several reasons why you should come ride with us:

  • Everything is included, within a small group of 8 to 10 riders max.

  • You have a local guide for the entire trip.

  • Quality bikes to hire, either standard or electric.

  • Experience France like never before with yoga, wellbeing and local wine/food tastings.

Another great weekend with friends. It’s the third year in a row we’ve done this trip, with Mont Ventoux as the destination in 2024. A great team to guide us, under Olivier’s supervision.

Three dream days perfectly organized by the GravelUp team. Unique routes, far from the beaten tracks, a guide who knows every single stone of Mont Ventoux, and top-of-the-line bikes kept in perfect condition… Can’t wait to come back and explore new territories!

Gravel weekends in the Morvan in May 2023, the Vosges in September 2023, and the Ventoux in May 2024. Each time, breathtaking landscapes and excellent organization by Gravel Up, from the guides, lodging, meals, support, and bikes, to of course the gravel routes through pristine nature and absolute tranquility. It’s always an amazing experience, and I can’t wait to do more!

An amazing Gravelup trip in the Ventoux! The organization was fantastic, and our guide Oliver shared his passion by taking us along all the stunning gravel trails around Ventoux with some serious climbs and taught us how to descend safely without falling!

And let’s not forget Olivier, our organizer, who took great care of us, always ready with some local snacks for a little boost, and even setting up a table with a tablecloth at the top of a pass!An unforgettable experience! Bravo, Gravelup!
