Presentation of the motorcycle trip in Beaujolais

2 days on a motorcycle in the Beaujolais: discover all the nuances of the Beaujolais region on a motorcycle, from the lush green forests that cover a third of the territory to the 14,000 hectares of lush vineyards, you'll be spoilt for choice!

During these two days combining road and off-road, all the colors of Beaujolais will be on display: from green to yellow Beaujolais, from red to white grape varieties, including the latest Beaujolais rosés. You'll have the chance to discover these hues by motorcycle, along the roads and paths, alongside the vines and in the heart of the Beaujolais forests... And if you choose to travel between late September and late October, the full palette of autumn colors will be on display.

On the oenological side, the trip will alternate between a meeting with a winemaker, a visit to a cuvage to learn about the different stages of winemaking, and an oenological tasting session . Once again, if you come in September, you'll also be able to take a closer look at this crazy harvest period.

Detailed program for the 2-day motorcycle trip in Beaujolais

Day 1: Between vineyards and green Beaujolais

On the road through the forests of the Beaujolais Vert region during our motorcycle trip in Beaujolais

You'll travel along the dirt roads and trails of the Beaujolais region, discovering majestic forests, rightly exploited to supply the forestry industry with quality wood and flood helmets with the scent of softwoods. You'll also have the privilege of admiring vine-covered landscapes and discovering enchanting grape varieties.

Back at the hotel, Amélie will delight your taste buds and brains with her intoxicating knowledge of Beaujolais crus.

Expect to sleep well!

Jour 2 : Œnotourisme et pierres dorées

View of a village in the heart of the Pierres Dorées (yellow Beaujolais)

The second day will be more relaxed, with plenty of visits to the region's human and architectural treasures. In particular, you'll have the privilege of driving through the golden stones of southern Beaujolais. Once again, you'll be treated to an array of flavors. Always ready to listen, Jean-Charles will adapt his route to your needs.
