5 Giorni in Moto nelle Cevennes e selvagge: curve, castelli e panorami da sogno
Il Circo di Navacelles, l'emozionante Viadotto di Millau, le Gole dell'Ardèche e le tracce di Annibale
Le Cevennes sono un territorio dove la natura conserva ancora il suo fascino selvaggio, tra montagne, gole scavate dai fiumi e villaggi medievali immersi nella storia. Questo tour in moto ci porterà attraverso strade sinuose e panorami mozzafiato, tra colori caldi di roccia bruna e verdi vallate, dove ogni curva regala uno scorcio da cartolina.
Dalla salita al Colle della Lombarda alle spettacolari Gorges de la Méouge e d'Ubrieux, sentiremo il respiro della storia, passando per luoghi che furono testimoni del passaggio di Annibale con i suoi elefanti.
Le famose gole dell'Ardèche ci sorprenderanno in movimento, permettendoci di ammirare il Balcone dei Templari e il suggestivo Pont d'Arc in pietra, mentre le Cevennes ci accoglieranno con le loro strade tortuose ma perfettamente percorribili, alternate a panorami che cambiano continuamente: castelli arroccati come quello di Portes, ponti antichi e torrenti scintillanti.
Il punto forte del viaggio è il Circo di Navacelles, un vero gioiello naturale per ogni motociclista, seguito dalla magia dei villaggi medievali come La Cavalerie e dalla straordinaria esperienza di attraversare il Viadotto di Millau, il ponte strallato più alto del mondo, simbolo di audacia ingegneristica e bellezza spettacolare.
Le giornate si susseguiranno tra curve emozionanti lungo le Gorges du Tarn, strade panoramiche sui monti della Lozère e momenti di pausa nei borghi più caratteristici, fino al rientro attraverso il Lago di Serre Ponçon e colli storici, con la sensazione di aver vissuto un'autentica avventura su due ruote, lontano dai percorsi più battuti, ma sempre immersi in una natura accogliente e sorprendente.
Il nostro accompagnatore Angelo vi aspetta, per viaggiare in un piccolo gruppo di massimo 8 moto, proprio come tra amici!
Km totali: 1.210 circa
Curve e tornanti
In questo viaggio si passa la maggior parte della giornata in sella, e si affrontano tornanti stretti e splendide curve!
Our motorbike tours are designed to be easy, relaxing and enjoyable. For this reason, we keep the number of participants so small (maximum 8), in order to adapt the rhythm and routes to the capabilities of the group. No one gets left behind, and that's why our motorcycle tours are suitable for beginners.
Driving will, however, be a significant part of the trip, so we recommend to self-assess your driving skills and endurance honestly before deciding to take a motorcycle trip.
This tour, however, does not require any exceptional driving skill:
- There will be for sure some tight roads with hairpin turns, so you should be able to steer the bike in these situations.
- We will not drive too fast, we will enjoy the road, the curves and the landscape.
- there will be fun and enjoyable roads during all the tour.
If you want Elena to help you evaluate better the required level of expertise, you can contact her via e-mail at [email protected] , she will be happy to help!
You can ride with us on any kind of bike (you can also join with a big scooter, we don't discriminate against anyone!)
To be able to maintain an adequate pace that allows us to keep up with the various stages of the program, we recommend using a motorcycle that has at least
- 300cc / 35cv / 25kW for tours with average daily travel up to 200-250km
- 500cc / 40cv / 30kW for tours with an average daily distance of 250-300km or higher
This was, if the situation requires it, or when the tour requires it, we could also take advantage of some sections of motorway (which we usually try to avoid as much as possible). These are guidelines, we know that a good biker with a 250 can go faster than Elena with her Tiger 800, so if you have any doubts, do not hesitate to ask us.
This tour will be entirely on paved roads, so you can join with your motorcycle, or with the one you like, it should only have good tires and be well maintained.
If you would like to rent a bike for the trip, we are at your disposal: mark it in your reservation or contact Elena by emal at [email protected] and we will help you find the best ride possible!
Nei viaggi che organizziamo cerchiamo sempre la miglior soluzione possibile per il parcheggio delle moto. Quando l'hotel dove pernotteremo ha un parcheggio custodito, prenotiamo sempre il posto per parcheggiarle in sicurezza durante la notte.
Non sempre però gli hotel hanno questa possibilità, soprattutto quando facciamo tappa nel centro storico di qualche città, in questi casi cerchiamo delle alternative altrettanto valide (un parcheggio privato, un parcheggio pubblico sotterraneo), ma può capitare anche di dover lasciare le moto parcheggiate in strada. Lo stesso può capitare durante le visite eventualmente previste dal programma (castelli, cantine, parchi, etc...)
Nei nostri viaggi, dal 2017, non abbiamo mai avuto furti., ma sappiamo bene che il rischio non è mai nullo (anche nei garage, o quando ci si ferma per pranzo). Per questo motivo i nostri accompagnatori, per la loro moto, hanno sempre con sé catenaccio e bloccadisco.
In our motorbike journeys you can find solo riders, couples, friends, ... In a small group of 8 you become immediately friends, and often people keep in contact even after the end of the tour. This tour is perfect for those that traveling alone but don't want to be on their own for the whole trip. You're independent and you can choose if and when to share your free time with the group.
Our travelers are people who know how to travel, in fact they arrive independently to the place of the appointment, mainly from all over Italy (but not only) and who choose to take a trip with us to learn differently about places, people, flavors and traditions. We are proud to say that our travelers are the best part of our trips!
Solo travellers are always welcome in our tours, and if you feel like sharing a double of triple room with other members of the group we will send you an e-mail after your reservation and you will be able to tell us about your preferences (for example, if you are a girl and you would like to share a room with girls only etc). You will not pay any surcharge.
If you prefer, you can book a single room for a fee.
If there are no other solo travellers in your tour or if there is no opportunity to satisfy your preferences, your single room will be offered by us at no extra charge.

Booking Policy, from the General Terms and Condition for the Sale of Tour Packages:
3) RESERVATIONS
Acceptance of reservations by Giroola Srl is subject to availability. Reservations will be considered final following confirmation by Giroola Srl, even via e-mail or fax, to the client.
Indications relative to the tour package not contained in the contract documents, brochures or other forms of written communication, will be supplied in time by Giroola Srl prior to the initial starting date in compliance with its duties as envisaged by Legislative . decree n. 79/2011.
4) PAYMENT
Upon booking, a registration fee and a deposit of 25% of the total amount is required. Full payment is due 30 days prior to departure. For reservations made within 30 days of departure, full payment is due upon booking. Lack of payment of the abovementioned sums on the dates established constitutes grounds for cancellation of reservations such as to determine, on the part of Giroola Srl, the right to terminate the contract.
5) TRANSFER OF CONTRACT
The client renouncing the contract may be substituted by another person provided that:
a) Giroola Srl be given written notice at least 4 weekdays prior to the date of departure, together with the necessary personal data of the transferee;
b) The transferee be able to satisfy all the conditions for the fruition of the service ( ex article 10 of Legislative decree n.111/95) and in particular the requisites relative to passports, visas, health certificates;
c) The transferee refund Giroola Srl for all expenses incurred for the transfer of the contract for the sum specified before the transfer.
Moreover, the transferor and the transferee are both accountable for the payment in full of the tour package price as well as for the sum as per item (c) of the present article.
As far as certain types of services are concerned, third party suppliers have the right to refuse the substitution of the transferee, even if effected within the time limit specified as per item (a) of the present article. Giroola Srl will therefore not be held responsible for the eventual non-acceptance of the substitution on behalf of third parties. This non-acceptance shall be notified in good time by Giroola Srl to the parties involved before departure.
6) WITHDRAWAL
In the event of withdrawing from the tour package contract, the client is, in any case, liable for the payment of the tour package price. If withdrawal takes place for reasons beyond those envisaged in article 7 of the present General Terms, the client shall pay, in compliance with ex article 1373, paragraph III, Italian Civil Code, cancellation penalties as specified below:
- 10% of the tour package price within 30 days prior to departure
- 30% of the tour package price from 29 to 18 days prior to departure
- 50% of the tour package price from 17 to 10 days prior to departure
- 75% of the tour package price from 9 to 3 weekdays prior to departure
- 100% of the tour package price beyond these terms.
7) WITHDRAWAL OF CLIENT WITHOUT PENALTY
The client may withdraw from the contract, without incurring any penalty, in the following circumstances:
- a significant change of one or more elements of the contract which can be objectively considered as fundamental for the fruition of the tour package in its entirety and proposed by Giroola Srl.
- after the conclusion of the contract itself but prior to departure and not accepted by the client.
In the abovementioned circumstances, the client is entitled to the following options:
- the fruition of an alternative tour package, with no increase in price or with the restitution of the excess in price, if the second tour package costs less than the first;
- the restitution of any sum corresponded as partial payment. Said restitution must be made within seven weekdays from receiving the request for reimbursement.
The client must communicate the decision (to accept the change or to withdraw) within two weekdays from receiving notice of the price increase or change. In the absence of specific notice within the said term, the proposal made by Giroola Srl will be considered accepted. The client who decides to withdraw from the contract before departure for circumstances beyond those listed above shall pay, after deducting the account paid as per article 4, the penalty indicated in article 6.
8) TOUR VARIATIONS
Variations to the tour, requested by the client, after the confirmation of booking, could involve processing expenses for Giroola Srl and at times penalties charged by suppliers. If so, the customer will be charged. Partial withdrawal of some of the travellers under the same contract and the resulting decrease in number of tour members is to be considered partial cancellation and is consequently regulated as stated in article 6.
As specified in our General Conditions of Sale of tourist packages, when you travel with Giroola you are covered by our Civil Liability Insurance. For all that could happen and that was due to our negligence or error, we have signed a policy (Reale Mutua Assicurazioni, nr.2007 / 03/2276452).
There are other insurance policies that we recommend and for which we have chosen to work with Allianz Global Assistance, whose Globy range seems to us to be the most suitable for our travelers:
- TRAVEL CANCELLATION - Our 8-person trips are often full months before the date of travel, and even if our cancellation policy is actually much more flexible than expressed in our Booking Policy (our travelers can attest to this, we are very available to move the trip in case of unexpected even the last minute), where other facilities are involved (hotels, rentals, etc) some expenses are not really refundable, and therefore a good trip cancellation insurance becomes a valuable ally.
- HEALTH and ASSISTANCE
We at Giroola are an agency of the Globy network of Allianz Global Assistance, and we can therefore provide you with all the information, make estimates and issue the policies directly with the booking.
For any information our Paola is at your disposal at the phone number +39 370 3506333, at the address [email protected] or in the chat directly on this page.
