Switzerland Bike Tour Rating

Moderate Riding

The DuVine Adventures Switzerland bicycle trip is rated Moderate. The bike tour consists of riding along glaciers and through medieval villages cycling up through lush vineyards and then breeze down through enchanting villages. In Switzerland, the cycling will be mostly on paved roads with glorious downhill rides off the beaten track through rolling pastures. We will ride from Villars to les Diablerets deriving from the French ‘le Diable’, the devil. But no one need harbour any fears in Les Diablerets, as you’ll be pleased when you reach the top to admire the views the glacier at 3000 meters!   Daily distances of cycling range from 17 to 31 miles per day, with options for more riding.  Switzerland riding offers lots of great downhill riding, stunning scenery and of course your local and professional DuVine guides will be there to assist you at all times.
