Family vacation on the island of Oleron. Great vacation! And really great for all kinds of cycling; road trips like the island tour, mountain biking in the pine forests and on the beaches at low tide.

Almost complete tour of the island except the forest of Trojan.

Free and safe parking at the start.

Mid-term restaurant.

Varied paths.

A one-day outing. Little difference in height so little difficulty (the only thing is the time spent in the saddle). Varied landscapes and plenty of pleasant places to take breaks, including swimming. 👌😎

August 31, 2022,Tour d‘Oléron
Tackled the Tour d'Oléron today. It should be paths that lead largely along the coast.
There was an ice cream in La Cotinière as a reward, almost on the home stretch. We then had the obligatory aperitif, a beer and a Pineau at home.
The tour itself was only 96.6 km, then I drove around the house twice to fill …

The weather was amazing, we had 33 litres of rain during the night and from midday onwards it was just sunshine. The view from the lighthouse of the Île de Ré and the bridge to La Rochelle was beautiful. Then we took the oyster route down to Le Château-d'Oléron and then we watched the sunset with dolphin 🐬 observation.
