Munich is a vibrant city with much to see and do. Visit the famous Hofbraühaus to enjoy a frothy litre mug of beer while swaying to the Oom-Pah music with the locals. The City Museum of Munich offers a fascinating insight into the diverse history of the city and we also highly recommend a stroll through the wonderful Englischer Garten – a large park area in Schwabing where you can enjoy a beer and wurst in the fresh air
Staffelsee
Leaving the city you’ll enter a quieter world, cycling along quiet lanes past clear lakes to colourful, baroque towns and rustic villages. Murnau, a lovely old market town, enjoying an idyllic location on the shore of Lake Staffelsee is lovely place to spend the night. In Garmish-Partenkirchen we highly recommend taking the mountain railway up to a dizzying 3000 meters for some amazing views of the surrounding alps.
A lovely day’s riding through quiet valleys will bring you to Wallgau, a charming town where Bavarian traditions are still very evident and part of everyday life. In Bad Tölz you can wander along the bustling ‘Tölzer‘ street admiring the baroque houses, perhaps taking a seat in one of the many cafes, bars or restaurants for a spot of people watching.
This cycle route follows easy, flat cycle paths and back roads. There are a few unpaved sections and some minor climbs to contend with and only a few very short sections on roads with more traffic, but the route is well within the reach of most leisure cyclists.

Apart from the famous cities at either end, highlights of this route include riding through the Müritz and Nossentiner Heide National Parks, the peaceful shores of Lake Stechlin, and the wonderful old towns of Waren and Güstrow.
Some of the daily rides are relatively long – 45+ miles on some days – and so you do need a fairly good standard of fitness to really enjoy this tour. You’ll be cycling on a variety of surfaces, from quiet back roads and country lanes to canal towpaths, lakeside tracks and open coastal roads.

Lake Constance is actually a large bulge in the Rhine River and comprises of the Obersee (Upper Lake) and Untersee (Lower Lake). Your cycling holiday will start and finish in Constance, a pretty German town with a small harbour lined with half-timbered buildings. The route will lead you first around the Lower Lake, taking in the gorgeous medieval town of Stein am Rhein, and then the remaining 4 days are spent circumnavigating the larger upper lake.
Stein am Rhein
The daily rides unveil the lake’s many highlights including the the medieval lakeside towns of Überlingen and Lindau, the Zeppelin Museum at Friedrichshafen and the famous theatre on the lake at Bregenz.
Throughout the holiday you’ll enjoy the stunning natural beauty of the lake and surrounding countryside with the Alps providing a dramatic backdrop in the distance.
The route follows dedicated cycle paths along the lake-shore. The terrain is mostly level with very few climbs and will therefore suit anyone with a basic level of fitness. E-bikes are also available and regular ferries link the main towns, providing cyclists with a means of shortening the rides if desired.

Lake Constance
On this 5 night holiday you will have 4 days to explore the lake by bike, selecting daily rides from a list of suggested routes.
Take the ferry to Meersburg and then follow the cycle path along the northern shoreline to Lindau, an idyllic little town seeming to float in the lake on its own tiny peninsula. Another ferry delivers you back to Constance in the afternoon.
A visit to the botanical island of Mainau where your senses will be saturated with colourful blooms and heady scents is a must and don\'t miss the enchanting butterfly house and elegant castle.
The ride on to Reichenau Island and then along the banks of the Rhine to the beautiful medieval town of Stein-am-Rhein is another highlight, as is the ride to the Birnau Monastery with its sensational views across the lake.
Most of the rides follow clearly marked cycle paths, often beside the lake itself. There are some undulations here and there but on the whole the going is easy and this holiday will be well within the capabilities of most leisure cyclists. E-bikes are an available option on this route.
