Self Guided Bicycle Tours Through Europe

2016/7/25 14:51:24

Seeing Europe through a bicycle tour is a unique experience, guaranteed to be one of the best vacations of your lifetime. It's easy to take the world in from the seat of a bicycle. You see so much more from a bike than you do through the window of a car.

Taking a bicycle tour through Europe is as easy as deciding which country you want to start from.

Germany

A variety of bicycle tours through Europe start in Germany.

The Lake Constance self guided tour through Bavaria starts in the town of Lindau, which calls itself "the happy end of Germany." This ride is not recommended for beginners, as the elevation through the Allgaeu Mountains of Bavaria and the highlands of the Allgaeu call for strong climbing legs. The scenery is well worth the effort, with views of the spectacular alps, alpine lakes, and forests. This is a self guided, seven-night tour.

A much better option for beginning cyclists is the bicycle path that goes round Lake Constance. This path is the most popular bicycle riding route in all of Europe. Travel through the medieval villages of Meersburg, Lindau, Stain, and Konstanz. This is a self guided, seven-night tour.

The Innsbruck to Munich bicycle tour through Europe is another challenging bit of roadway, with high mountains and deep canyons providing challenges and thrills. You'll be amazed by the beauty of the Ziller Valley, with its rustic guest houses and turquoise blue water. This is a self guided, six-night tour.

The Four Countries, Three Lakes tour takes cyclists through Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria and Germany and along three picturesque lakes. This seven night tour is also self guided.

The Berlin to Copenhagen tour provides 400 miles of scenic cycling on some of the best maintained bike paths in Europe. You'll see rustic fishing villages and royal palaces as you travel quiet country roads.

Holland

It's been said that Holland is such a low country, one can see the horizon from under the belly of a cow. You can try this for yourself when you take the Dutch Lowlands bicycle tour through Europe. Ride you bike along the sluices, bridges, and other waterworks that keep the Netherlands above water, if not above sea level.

For families with children aged between 7 and 11, the cycle and sail holiday takes you on a guided tour of seven nights' duration. Activities of interest to children are included in this tour. Sail across Ijssel Lake to the port town of Hoorn, then cycle to an open air museum and other sight seeing destinations.

Even if you've been to Europe before, you haven't seen it all unless you have taken a bicycle tour through Europe.
