The Alps – Black Forest, Swiss, French & Italian Alps, Austrian Tyrol Mountains. 9 days departing Sunday 6th July 2025 – FULLY BOOKED
We’re off to the Alps for nine days of spirited driving on some truly amazing roads and mountain passes. We’ll be passing through Germany and the Black Forest, making our way through Switzerland and Austria before descending into Italy, the furthest point from home on this trip. We’ll then head back over the Alps again via Switzerland and Austria before arriving in France.
Day 1.
We’ll gather for a quick breakfast and introduction before heading off on a short drive to the Euro Tunnel terminal. We’ll hop on the train and arrive 45mins later in France. We’ll then travel in convoy using the fabulous French autoroute system, heading in the direction of Freiburg Germany where we’ll spend our first night.
Day 2.
After breakfast and morning briefing we’ll pack our bags and set off to spend some time on the roads of the Black Forest, taking in a section of the famous Black Forest road, working our way towards Ravensburg. We’ll be staying in Germany again this evening, close to the border with Switzerland and Austria.
Day 3.
This morning we’ll be heading into Austria, building in elevation as we take in some of the awesome mountain views and crystal clear lakes as we enter the Tyrol region, making our way across central Austria, as we make our way to Italy where our hotel awaits.
Day 4.
No need to pack your bags this morning as we are returning to the hotel for a second night. After breakfast and our briefing we’ll set off. There there isn’t far to go as we’re in a corner of Italy wrapped by mountains and, most importantly, mountain roads! That’s why we’re here! This area is truly spectacular in every way!
Day 5.
Yesterday we dipped into Austria and today we are heading to Switzerland to take in some of their famous and lesser known mountain passes. We’ll be stopping regularly through the day for photo opportunities as the scenery here is just as staggering as the roads.
Day 6.
After breakfast and morning briefing we’ll pack our bags and set off for lower ground, skirting Lake Garda first, before climbing again, crossing Switzerland, making our way south on some great driving roads to the French and Italian Alps in the south.
Day 7.
After breakfast and the daily briefing we’ll head out on the roads. Not far to go as were ideally placed, surrounded by mountain passes in France and Italy. We’ll be out for the day, stopping for lunch along the route before returning to our hotel.
Day 8.
We need to make our way towards Calais today. It’s quite a drive so, after an early breakfast, we’ll set off again using the French autoroutes to get us there as easily as possible.
Day 9.
Our Euro Tunnel is booked for 10:00AM, so well have a quick breakfast and dash for our train, due to be back in the UK at 10:45AM.
