Motor along on a bike

You don’t have to have the stamina of Bradley Wiggins to cycle in France. Do it by e-bike, which has an electric motor to help you out on those hilly bits.

Camino Ways, the walking and cycling holiday specialists, offer you the chance to explore the beautiful landscapes of the Camino in the French Pyrenees and Spain by e-bike. The French Way (or Camino Frances) starts in the small town of St Jean Pied de Port, and passes through some of the most magnificent towns and landscapes in northern Spain.

The most popular section is the Camino Last 100km, which starts in Sarria and finishes in Santiago de Compostela in one week. There are many routes suitable for all ages and fitness levels including Via Francigena from France to Rome.

E-bikes include interactive GPS to highlight the architecture, history and landscapes along your route. A cycling adventure with Camino Ways costs from €690 (£552) for seven days, anywhere on the French Way. See www.caminoways.com
