OPTIONAL EXTRAS
From the shores of Lake Constance to Strasbourg’s canals, cycle past sunlit vineyards, riverside castles, and the thunderous Rhine Falls, with the Alps standing watch. The route winds through Swiss elegance, Black Forest foothills, and Alsace’s romantic riverbanks.
As you cycle alongside the Rhine River, a rich cultural tapestry unfolds. The journey begins in Constance, where medieval streets lead to a lively harbor and half-timbered squares. The river carries you past vineyard-cloaked hills and fairy-tale towns before reaching Europe’s most powerful waterfall.
In Basel, Swiss precision meets artistic vibrancy, with historic bridges linking grand merchant houses and avant-garde museums. Further north, Freiburg’s Gothic spires rise above sun-drenched vineyards, while Alsace’s storybook towns whisper tales of empires and artisans.
From lakeside serenity, where Napoleon once gazed over the Rhine, to ancient trade routes guarded by medieval watchtowers, every turn reveals history shaped by shifting borders, merchant legacies, and cultural exchange.
This journey covers an average of 55 km of daily cycling and 250 m of elevation gain. It follows cycling paths and quiet country roads, mostly along the Rhine’s gentle banks, with occasional rolling ascents through vineyard-covered hills.
Your holiday includes GPS tracks, a detailed digital itinerary, and full support, ensuring a seamless journey. Luggage transfers allow you to ride light, while carefully chosen accommodations provide comfort at the end of each day.
