Renting a bike

Renting a bike is a great solution for:

  • discovering cycle touring
  • ensuring your bike is in good condition and well equipped
  • groups needing additional equipment
  • those wanting an alternative to transporting their bike on the train

OPTIONS: One-way bike rental | Renting along the cycle route 

 

Bespoke one-way rentals


Ideal for cycle touring, one-way rental lets you hire a bike from your starting point (on-site or via a delivery service) and leave it at your end destination. Several bike renters offer this type of service along the Vélomaritime route. Don’t forget to book well in advance. Most of the renters offer traditional and electric bike rentals, along with all the equipment (saddle bags, helmets, etc.). Make sure you tell them exactly what you need when you book.

Renting a bike on the cycle route

There are bike rental services in most of the towns on the route.

It is really worth renting side bags when renting a bike. They are very practical for carrying clothes and a picnic, even for a day trip. Some bike renters also provide trailer rentals or third wheel trailer bikes for your children.
