Beschrijving
Uitstekende beschrijving van de klassieke fietsroute tussen de twee steden Londen en Parijs: goede routebeschrijving, met hoogteprofielen, belangrijke informatie en uitstekende kaarten.
This guidebook describes two long-distance cycle routes between London and Paris: the 'classic route' and the Avenue Verte. The continuing development of national cycle networks in both countries and an increased interest in cycling have further increased the popularity of this journey, both as a cycle tour and for sponsored challenges. Both routes are well within the capabilities of cyclists of moderate fitness and will generally take between five days and a week - meaning that a round trip, including a few days sightseeing in Paris, can easily be accomplished in a fortnight.
The classic route is presented in 11 stages; the Avenue Verte in 9. Primary route description for both routes is from London to Paris, but the reverse direction is also described. Each stage includes clear, step-by-step route description, mapping and information on local points of interest. An overview of facilities on route, a list of useful contacts (including tourist offices and hostels) and a bilingual glossary can be found in the appendices.
At 490km (excluding the Channel crossing), the traditional/classic route crosses the Channel either by ferry from Dover to Calais or via the Channel Tunnel. An alternative route, the Avenue Verte, was launched in 2012 to celebrate the London Olympics, offering a shorter journey of 387km but requiring a longer ferry crossing from Newhaven to Dieppe. Whereas the classic route includes quiet country roads, rural tracks and a few short stretches on main roads, the Avenue Verte makes maximum use of Sustrans off-road cycle tracks in England and voies vertes (rural cycle routes) in France, although there are still a few sections of road-cycling on quiet roads (the long-term aim is to make it traffic-free throughout). This is the first guidebook to include both the waymarked Avenue Verte and the non-waymarked classic route and provides all the information you need to enjoy a successful trip.
