Discover Avignon by motorcycle
Hire a motorcycle: explore Avignon and Provence
Avignon is a fantastic base for motorcycle tours: it’s only about 50 miles from this charming city to the Mediterranean coast. Here, expect to find winding coast roads and impressive panoramas. Inland, the countryside is at least as beautiful: tourists hail Provence as one of the most popular regions of France. Its profuse lavender fields are world-famous and a feast for the senses, especially when in bloom in the summer months.
Bikers are attracted to the region primarily due to its mountainous landscape: the Alpilles lie south of Avignon, while the Monts d'Ardèche are located north of the city. Both regions are equally popular holiday destinations for motorcyclists, due to the views and, above all, the winding roads. Less well-known but equally breathtaking are the roads in the Drôme department, which is also immediately north of Avignon. Above all, the route around the Combe Laval is one of the most exciting stretches in the Alps and an absolute must for the biking enthusiast.
