What to Expect on a Cycling Holiday
We plan the Cycling Holidays according to our philosophy: "Cycling and walking in nature is a matchless experience. Once you try it, you will want to do it again and again. Taking a few days to cycle or walk in places surrounded by beauty is very refreshing."
Whether you go on a cycling or walking holiday, or combine the two, you will surely enjoy the experience.
There is much to see on a cycling holiday in Germany, such as villages, towns, and large cities like Berlin, Hamburg, Dresden, and Hanseatic cities such as Rostock. The smaller towns are often characterised by timber-framed houses and other interesting buildings. The change of scenery along the way between nature, culture, and various points of interest is important for letting the everyday stress melt away. Lakes, rivers, fields, and meadows are your natural companions on your journey.
We carefully select and organise the tours for you.
Signs are well posted on the cycle paths used by cyclists and pedestrians alike. Germany is a great place to combine cycling and walking for the exploration of surrounding nature. Peruse our tours. You may prefer a guided tour where a guide cycles with you and points out interesting facts about surrounding nature and regional culture. Or, relax on a refreshing self-guided bicycle tour through Germany.
