Day 1 – MorningA leisurely stroll around Bourg-en-Bresse
Kick off the weekend by exploring Bourg-en-Bresse, the prefecture of the department of Ain. If possible, we recommend coming by train with your bike, as there are plenty of trains coming into Bourg-en-Bresse station.
Once you arrive, set off to find out about the history of the town by strolling around the historic neighbourhoods. Half-timbered houses, Notre-Dame co-cathedral, the Porte des Jacobins, parks and gardens, there's so much to see in Bourg-en-Bresse.
Top tip: make sure you pick up a map from the Tourist Office to find your way around more easily.
