Cantal à vélo CycloGuide

Series details

£17.50

One of the titles in a series of maps, each with a selection of day-long cycle tours in the departments of France, designed in cooperation with the FFTC, Fédération Française de CycloTourisme, and local authorities. Each title consists of a folder with, typically, 12 or 25 leaflets (30x21cm). On one side a map at 1:100,000 is overprinted with a tour, plus adjoining tours so that longer routes can also be devised. The map is accompanied by simple instructions indicating directions, sing-posting, road numbers and changes in altitude.

On the reverse is a profile of the route, a table showing facilities available at various stages of it (grocery shops, cafes, restaurants, bicycle repairs, doctors, pharmacies, hotels, chambers d’hôte, gîtes and campsites), a list of main places of interest, plus a brief description of the route. Each title also includes a booklet showing the location of all the tours within the department, grading according to the difficulty of the terrain, and a simple map legend used in this series. All the text is in French.
