The Free State of Bavaria needs no introduction. Everyone knows the Alpine region and feels right at home. It’s no wonder that many of our most popular cycle tours are located in Bavaria. Of course, Munich and the surrounding area play an important role.

Cyclists in the city centre of Bad Tölz

Blossoming almond trees, vineyards as far as the eye can see and exotic fruits offer the Palatinate holidaymaker a beautiful setting for a cycle tour. Become enchanted by the charm of the Palatinate. You can’t go wrong with any of our tours!

Lake Constance

The endless Lake Constance - nestled between heavy fruit trees that give off a heavenly scent, picturesque wine regions and rugged mountains - is one of the most popular cycling destinations in Germany.

Main Cycle Path

The little brother of the Rhine – we’re of course talking about the Main. It plays a major role at Eurobike and is by no means in its big brother’s shadow. Cycle tours like Bayreuth - Mainz or the Main Vintner's Tour are just one example of the wonderful cycle tours along the Main.

The beautiful rivers, which are so wonderful to cycle along, are especially attractive for cyclists in central Germany. This idyllic image is accompanied by enchanting castles and palaces, which are very common in this area, as well as picturesque vineyards. A bike holiday in central Germany promises a lot of rest and valuable time to yourself.

Secluded beaches on the rough Baltic Sea, dreamy fishing villages, thatched houses and modern cities await the cyclist in northern Germany. On almost perfect cycle paths you reach one highlight after the last.

Useful information about your cycle tour in Germany

The climate in germany.

Like the cuisine, the climate in Germany varies! Overall, it is incredibly difficult to make a forecast of the weather across the country. Various climatic zones meet here. From the mountainous climate of the Alps, to the continental climate on the south-east of Germany and on to the maritime north you will find all weather.

Grapes in the Palatinate

German Cuisine

You can’t lump German food together. It is as diverse as Germany herself. The hearty Bavarian cuisine is more similar to that in Austria. ‘Thüringer Klöße’ (dumplings), ‘Köningsberger Klopse’ (meatballs with white sauce) or ‘Kohlrouladen’ (cabbage rolls) are just a few examples of central German cuisine. And what is being served in northern Germany? Fish is of course high on the list, as is potato salad, kale, turnip and beetroot.

Great hotels, the GPS track was enormously helpful and overall it was a great trip. Bikes and equipment all good. We did miss our third wine tasting mainly as we assumed it was at the end of the day like the others, only to find it was 20 k back . Beautiful route.

"Really enjoyed this tour. It was exactly what we were looking for, the independence to do what we wanted on some days and some tours organised for us on other days. Communication from Tour radar was great through What’s App. The only thing we would change would be to upgrade the two 3 star motels to 4 star motels.

Berlinish or Bavarian

Germany is diverse and varied, also when it comes to its culture and language or dialects: listen to Low German on your cycle tour through the north, it has been recognised as a language in its own right and included in the European Charter for Regional and Minority Languages. In Bavaria you will encounter Franconian and Bavarian dialects, yo mei. Perhaps you'd like to babble Hessian , chat Swabian or experience a real Berliner Schnauze, eh? Et kütt, wie et kütt, they say in Kölsch. So let's see what regional specialities you will discover, because there are not only linguistic but also cultural differences.
