The Chestnut adventure ride
1h45 ride in the railcar then pedalling the rail bike back
Ideal for beginners to practice an outdoor physical activity as you pedal along. Crossing throught woodland and panoramic views of the valley’s villages rythms the adventure !
Departing from Boucieu-le-Roi, you start your activity by train to complete the ascending part and reach the starting point, located 8 kilometers upstream. Then you board our rail bikes to pedal in the descent and reach Boucieu.
The tourist office Ardèche Hermitage has tested for you, find here the story of their experience !
Please note :
- For organisational reasons, you need to arrive 30 minutes prior to the activity.
- Our five-seat rail bikes carry two front pedallers + 3 passengers. To be allowed to pedal children must measure over 1.40m and must be accompanied by an adult at the front.
- All participants must be able to walk alone.
- For safety reasons, children weighing under 9kg are not accepted on the rail bikes. For those over this weight our team can adapt a child seat (if available).
