I'm heading over to Luxembourg for a few days in June; after that I have 7 days as a free agent, and then I must be in Brittany (near Brest). Travelling alone on an RT.
I'd thought about heading down to Schaffhausen, Switzerland, and the Rheinfall, which I've not seen before. From there to Brittany (according to MapSource) is 720 miles. Plan so far is:
Day 1 - leave Luxembourg, to Germany - bimble about
Day 2 - arrive Schaffhausen / Rhienfall (pm)
Day 3 - Switzerland; sightsee? Ride passes? Mountains?
Day 4 - ??
Day 5 - ??
Day 6 & 7 - start across to Brittany?
Day 8 - arrive Brittany, afternoon.
Does anyone have any "must sees" while in Switzerland, and whilst wandering across France?
I'd thought about going north again after Schaffhausen to the Vosges - love the area, but I have been there a few times...... or there must be any amount of stuff to be seen - sights, villages, towns, whatever - during the course of a 700 mile wander across France taking a line roughly (very roughly) through Belfort, Troyes, south of Paris, Le Mans and thence Brittany.
Thoughts and suggestions very welcome. I'm not a big fan of planning too tightly but I don't have much time to myself this year and want to pack in all the value I can.
