Euro-Velo 6, which wends its way across the entire width of France on traffic-free and lightly trafficked tracks and roads using the Loire Valley for much of its length. The traffic-free Littoral route along Provence's lovely Mediterranean coast. Countless signed routes in the Alps - some much easier than you might imagine.
