good surfaces for cycling. And
Prague
at the end. Cycling Czech Republic is
a really
well-balanced vacation
experience!

Tours
|
| Easy -
bike
tour follows a course of a river, usually downstream;
the terrain profile is almost level, the route can
be easily traveled by beginner bikers. |
Moderate –
the bike tour is evenly distributed over
hilly terrain and less demanding flat parts;
1 or 2 more challenging
days of ascents and
descents (crossing a
mountain range), the
route can be managed by
recreational cyclists who
ride regularly at home. |
|
|
Challenging -
only 1 or 2 easy days; the rest of the route is challenging
in terms
of terrain: several highland
or mountain ranges to be crossed during the tour, with long, steep climbs.
The route is suitable for well-trained recreational cyclists or accomplished
sports enthusiasts, who will enjoy the very difficulty of the terrain. |

Cycling Czech
Republic – surfaces you will encounter
All
bicycle tours follow a solid surface (tarmac), and
are well
suited for a hybrid bike.
Only
a few
short
sections go over easy
terrain with fine
gravel
surface. For this reason
we
don’t
recommend
using
a road
bike. In the Czech Republic there is a
dense
network
of
small
3rd class roads ideal for cycling.
The surface
is of
good quality and there
is little
traffic.
If a cyclist should cross
a busy road, the
route guide
will always warn you of the
situation.
Cycling Czech
Republic - daily sections
The average riding distance per day is about 50 km
/ 32 miles. We don’t recommend
exceeding 70 km / 45 miles per day. There is not enough time then
to see noteworthy sites, which would be a great shame. Our desire
is to offer a balanced tour, with ample time for you to absorb
what’s going on around you and to relax.
