Why explore Europe with Grand Angle?

For over 40 years, Grand Angle has been designing active trips across Europe. Our on-the-ground expertise allows us to create authentic itineraries that reveal the cultural and natural treasures of each destination. Whether you dream of a solo adventure or a shared experience, our trips are designed to offer you serenity and discovery. We handle the logistics (accommodation, luggage transport, detailed itineraries) so you can focus on what truly matters: the pleasure of hiking or cycling.

Active holidays : hiking or cycling ?

Europe on foot

To discover Europe on foot is to take the time to connect with its deepest nature. Our Europe hiking tours take you through iconic landscapes, from the legendary paths of the Tour du Mont Blanc to the spectacular limestone formations of the Dolomites. Imagine yourself traversing the ancient trails of Greece or exploring the wild heart of the Italian mountains. Each itinerary is a promise of authentic immersion in breathtaking scenery.

Europe by bike

Cycling allows you to cover greater distances while remaining intimately connected to the landscapes. Our self guided bike tours in Europe are designed for all levels. Follow the rhythm of the water along the famous Danube bike tour, explore the vineyard-covered hills of Tuscany, or ride through the charming villages of France. Each pedal stroke is a new discovery.

Bike & Boat

Combine the pleasures of navigation and cycling with our bike and barge tours. This unique formula allows you to explore a region from its rivers and canals, with daily cycling excursions. Unpack your bags once and let yourself be carried away, like on our Holland bike and barge tours, where you can discover windmills and tulip fields from a new angle.

Our flagship destinations

France: A mosaic of landscapes

As our home base, France adventure tours hold a special place in our hearts. From the high peaks of the French Alps to the wild coastline of Brittany, the diversity is astounding. Cycle along the Atlantic on the Vélodyssée, or discover the royal castles of the Loire Valley by bike for a journey through history and nature.

Italy: between alpine peaks and Dolce Vita

Adventure travel in Italy offers a striking contrast between the alpine challenge and Mediterranean mildness. For seasoned hikers, the Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites is a must-do. For a gentler experience, the colorful villages of the Cinque Terre offer coastal hikes with unforgettable views.

Greece: Island hopping in the Aegean Sea

An adventure trip in Greece is an experience filled with light and history. Our hiking trips in the Cyclades allow you to hop from island to island, discovering whitewashed villages and ancient paths. For a complete immersion in mythology and wild nature, a hiking tour in Crete reveals a rich and preserved backcountry.

Practical advice for your european adventure

When is the best time to Go in Europe ?

Europe can be explored year-round, but each season has its charms. Spring is ideal for seeing the flora in bloom, making it perfect for hiking in spring. For cycling enthusiasts, the mild temperatures and warm colors of autumn offer excellent conditions for cycling in autumn. Southern destinations like Greece or Italy are particularly pleasant in September and October, away from the summer crowds.

Choosing your trip: self-guided or guided?

The choice is yours. Our self-guided tours in Europe offer you maximum flexibility to travel at your own pace, with friends or family, while benefiting from our flawless logistics. If you prefer to rely on an expert and enjoy the dynamics of a group, our guided tours in Europe are led by passionate professionals who will share their knowledge of the region with you.

How to prepare for your trip ?

Good preparation is the key to a successful trip. To help you pack your bag, we've compiled some essential tips. Check out our day hike packing list for your walking adventures and our bike trip packing guide for your cycling getaways.

Elisa 23/06/2026

—  The trip was amazing. The views, the Ocean, the excellent GPS links and the cities we visited. For us it was the first time doing a bike trip by the ocean and we loved it. (This is our 15th consecutive year traveling with bikes). We mostly dealt with Mathias, he was all along very kind, responsive and professional.

Thierry 18/08/2026

—  An unforgettable trip with breathtaking scenery—both literally and figuratively. We were a group of four; hiking together for 10 days was a rewarding experience, with challenging moments, but we felt proud after accomplishing each day’s goal. From our starting point in Les Houches, through the Col du Tricot, the Col du Bonhomme, and the Col de la Seigne, the panoramic view from the Elisabetta refuge, the Swiss valleys, Lake Champex, the summit of the Fenêtre d’Arpette, the Col de Forclaz, Lac Blanc, the Aiguille du Midi, and the Mer de Glace during our stop in Chamonix... All these places are no longer just experiences we’ve seen in videos made by other hikers. In terms of organization, a big thank you to Grand Angle. Everything went smoothly without a hitch (hotel reservations, luggage transfers). The welcome at the accommodations was wonderful, and the level of comfort was excellent at most of them as well. In conclusion, this is a trip and experience you shouldn’t miss if you love mountain hiking and have the opportunity. A minimum level of physical fitness is required. For us, it was more challenging than expected compared to what you see in online videos, but we have no regrets. It’s truly worth it.
