From rainy Germany to the sunny South of France – by bike!

Hi, we’re Jonas and Johanna, and this summer we went on an unforgettable bikepacking adventure.
Our journey took us from the Lake of Constance, through the stunning Swiss Alps, all the way to the beautiful Côte d’Azur on the Mediterranean Sea in southern France. We crossed mountains, slept most of the time in our tent, and experienced the pure freedom of life on two wheels.

If you love cycling tours, bikepacking Europe, or dream of riding your road bike over the Alps, this video will give you plenty of inspiration for your next cycling adventure.
