Cycling tours for wine lovers

Cycling through the vines

"Life is far too short to drink bad wine."  This is a quote from the famous poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Throughout history, people recognised the importance of good wine. It was served to kings, dukes and princes at every important great festival. Wine is also an integral part of today's culinary culture. Whether red, rosé or white, the range of wines leaves nothing to be desired. And let's face it, what better way to end the evening than with a glass of wine?

Why not enjoy a glass or two on our wonderful cycle tours through the wine-growing regions?

Experience our cycling & wine tours with all your senses

Vines wherever the eye can see. But it is not only the eye that is spoiled on our cycling & wine tours through the European winegrowing regions, but also all your taste buds. You can taste your way through the diversity of the entire wine range. A real treat! According to expert estimates, there are around 10,000 different grape varieties. Of these, a total of 2,500 wine varieties are officially permitted. If you would like to learn something about the origin and development of wine in addition to a glass or two, you will not be disappointed on our individual cycle tours. Enjoyment, sport and history are in harmony.

Germany

Lake Constance - Lindau

Weisswurst and wheat beer in Bavaria, currywurst and beer in Berlin and fish rolls and coffee in Hamburg. Germany is known for its delicious specialities and its beer. But not only!

Because what many people don't know is that Germany also has great wine-growing regions. Last year, in 2020, a total of 851 million litres of wine were produced. A gigantic figure, which will increase again in 2021. The prejudice that Germans only drink beer has thus also been dispelled.

 

Cycling through the vineyards in the wonderful nature

Palatinate

The Palatinate is probably the best-known and most popular wine region in Germany. Located in the south-west of Rhineland-Palatinate, it attracts numerous wine and cycling enthusiasts to Germany every year.

The good thing is that you won't go wrong with any of these tours!

Piedmont

Although Piedmont is possibly still underestimated, this region has long been considered one of Italy's insider tips by foodies. The intense smells and wonderful tastes will take you straight to the culinary region. Get on your bike and cycle past the rice fields of Vercelli, through the vineyards of the Barolo region and stop at the foot of the Alps to go truffle hunting. Yes, that's right, Piedmont offers all this and many more highlights. Let yourself be enchanted by the charm of this region on the Piedmont Round Trip, Centre-based Tour, Leisure and from Turin to San Remo. And what should not be missing on any of these cycle tours is, of course, a delicious glass of wine.

Austria

Snacks and wine

Land of mountains, land of streams, land of fields and land of Cathedrals. As the first stanza of our national anthem already reveals, Austria is a very diverse country. And we can probably all agree on that. Explore untouched nature on your bike saddle, far away from mass tourism. Austrian cuisine also leaves nothing to be desired. The Wiener Schnitzel, the Salzburg Nockerl, the Tyrolean Gröstl and the Styrian pumpkin seed oil invite you to feast around the clock. And if you like a glass of wine to go with it, you'll also get your money's worth on our cycling & wine tours through Austria.

Styria

Styria - the green heart of Austria. The province was given this name because three quarters of its area is characterised by mountain ranges and more than half by woodland. No wonder why many Austrians themselves seek out Styria as a place to relax. The proximity to nature and the delicious food invite you to recharge your batteries. Cyclists also love the attractive scenery for cycle tours along the Mur Cycle Path or through southern Styria. On these cycle tours you cycle in the path of Austrian wine. Especially Southern Styria is perfect for wine lovers as an absolute insider tip. Convince yourself of the wine and the green heart of Austria.
