Cycling holidays in the Baltic States, in Poland and in the Czech Repu

Cycling holidays in the Baltic States, Poland, and the Czech Republic are full of surprises.

Did you know that long white sandy beaches and crystal-clear water can be found not only in the Caribbean, but also along the Baltic coast in Pomerania? Especially in Poland and Lithuania, coastal landscapes alternate with forests and wide open plains – this very diversity is what makes cycling holidays in the Baltic States so appealing. As you cycle through dense woodlands, fertile fields, and colourful summer meadows, views of romantic castles and historic manor houses appear time and again. In some villages, time seems to slow down, making each ride particularly memorable. Cities such as Gdańsk, Kraków, Warsaw, and Klaipėda bring history vividly to life. In Masuria, clear rivers and lakes accompany the route.

In the Czech Republic, cycling routes follow the Vltava River through varied scenery. The Giant Mountains, the Bohemian Forest, the Ore Mountains, and the Elbe Sandstone Mountains offer changing impressions along the way. Tradition and modern life blend naturally here, especially in Prague. From the Czech capital, the popular cycling route along the Elbe leads all the way to Dresden.
