Cyclists can sample some seriously fresh air as they try out their skills on an Alpine Eurocamp holiday.

Spring is the perfect time for travellers to enjoy scenic views from the saddle, with May temperatures reaching a high of 20°C, making it ideal for a day out on two wheels.

Choose from a range of stunning French parcs, including the popular Camping Les Fontaines, La Ferme de la Serraz and Le Belledonne in the popular resort of Annecy.

Holidaymakers can travel light and take advantage of Eurocamp's cycle hire at all three parcs. Hire  bikes from just €12/day for children and €18/day for adults.
