Fancy some fresh air and a bike ride? We can’t recommend highly enough that you hire a bike and go for a ride in Vittel. Worried the routes might be too challenging for the children? We’ve picked out three that are sure to delight young and old alike.

The Little Loop

Vittel Park

At nearly 5 kilometres long and with an elevation gain of just 30 metres, this short circuit takes you on a journey to discover the natural and architectural beauty of the Thermal Park. The starting point is along the Galerie Thermale, giving you the chance to admire this iconic spot and even visit La Vigie de l’Eau before setting off. Once you’re on your bike, it’s plain sailing: the golf course, the racecourse and the equestrian centre are just some of the places you can stop off at before returning to the Park.

The intermediary

The Vittel Woods

This route also starts from the Galerie Thermale. Just over 7 kilometres long, with an elevation gain of exactly 71 metres, the Bois de Vittel circuit requires a little more effort. Between the golf course and the racecourse, you’ll cycle to the Bois de Vittel via the Mont Saint-Jean golf course. Here, you can enjoy the viewpoint of the same name and take in a 360-degree view of the town. You’ll then cycle through the Bois de Vittel before completing the loop at the Parc Thermal.
