GETTING THERE

-

Take the ferry from Dover to Calais from £45 return, and do your best to stay off French toll roads on the way to Switzerlan­d. Plan a route that incorporat­es the Ardennes, Verdun, and the Vosges National Park. Try the D27 and D431 from La Thur to Uffholtz. Need a diversion? Routes 27 and 348 through Luxembourg’s Sûre Valley won’t disappoint. Ride the Alps with Darko on the Alpstastic tour once or twice every year. The 2017 tour happens in late June. Fifteen days for a single rider on an air-cooled R1200GS sharing a room will cost you €5790. Upgrade to a liquid-cooled GS for an extra €400. Dinners, breakfasts, fuel, and accommodat­ion are all included. Find out more at mototrip-tours.com
