An experience that will delight your taste buds and promises great culinary discoveries for the most adventurous! Would you also like to change your habits and find genuine “made in France” gems on a cycling epic? We explain it all here:
EuroVelo 3 – La Scandibérique is decidedly not done surprising you, and today it offers a gourmet route. Over more than 500 km crossing the territories of the Pays des lacs, the Nord, the Aisne and the Oise, you will find surprising and subtle flavours thanks to numerous beer and cheese tastings. The boldest can even continue the adventure in Belgium (Wallonia) on the “points-noeuds” (node) network.
The Beers and Cheeses Trail winds along La Scandibérique through the départements mentioned and showcases many establishments that have all contributed to the quality of our beers and cheeses, renowned internationally. It is the perfect opportunity to get your bike out, stretch your legs and indulge in a guilty pleasure! Setting off to meet producers and brewers and contributing to the circular economy during a low-carbon trip is a big YES!
