After eating breakfast, you have to be sure to leave with the right equipment.
Provide two electrically assisted bicycles, one for the mother and one for the father,
Do not forget the small specific trailer for the child, which attaches to the back of the bike,
Sunscreen, water, a bicycle helmet, a little sweatshirt if temperatures are cold when you are at the top... and of course, don't forget a good picnic!

Damien Laymond, Ski instructor and 3 Vallées aficionado There are no restrictions on this bike path. Because it’s reserved exclusively to cyclists, there’s no need to stress about cars, especially if you’ve got a child in a trailer behind you at ground level.

Damien Laymond, Ski instructor and 3 Vallées aficionado The electrical assistance makes the cycling much easier, even with the trailer! The bike path surface is smooth, which makes it easier to control the bike and your balance.

Damien Laymond, Ski instructor and 3 Vallées aficionado We admired the stunning scenery together, the three of us, and we even spotted a few marmots before quietly setting off for the ride back down. It was a wonderful experience to share!
