Ardennes weekend

The Ardennes provide the backdrop for a weekend where sporting challenge, nature, and experience come together. From comfortable, bike-friendly accommodation in La Roche-en-Ardenne, where everything revolves around rest, recovery, and taking the stress out of your trip, you will head into the hills with an experienced guide to discover the region's most beautiful roads, rolling valleys, and iconic climbs. It is all about relaxed enjoyment of cycling, without worries about routes, nutrition, or planning. Along the way, CYCLOsportive provides sports nutrition from partner Maurten, allowing you to fully focus on the rhythm of the day and the kilometers ahead. The atmosphere within the group is welcoming and motivating, ensuring that both avid cyclists and recreational athletes feel right at home. Together, you will experience long days on the bike, interspersed with good coffee, tall tales, and a sense of freedom.

About the journey

This training weekend is designed for cyclists who want to start their season strong or deepen their passion for road cycling. The routes combine well-known climbs with quiet roads through vast forests and authentic villages. Thanks to the guidance of a guide, you won't have to worry about a thing and can fully immerse yourself in the surroundings and the experience of cycling together. After every ride, you return to comfortable, bike-friendly accommodation where rest and recovery take center stage. Based on bed and breakfast, every day starts relaxed and energized. The weekend is not just about performance, but above all about the feeling of being on the road together, pushing limits, and creating memories that will last a long time.
