Our most beautiful cycle tours in spring
Cycling through a colourful sea of tulips in Holland
The land of tulips, bicycles, windmills and of course cheese has been one of our favourite destinations for an irresistible cycle tour for many years. Holland is a top destination for a successful cycling holiday almost all year round! But there are a few weeks a year during which a cycle trip is really worth it – during the tulip bloom. From mid-April to early/mid-May, the endlessly wide tulip fields in Holland are in full bloom, they shimmer in all the colours of the rainbow and exude their slightly sweet fragrance that not only attracts bees, but also us cyclists.
Spring cycling in the Palatinate
The southern Palatinate is presented to us in pink in spring. The entire region has longed for this most beautiful time of year. Depending on the winter, the Palatinate is in full bloom for a few weeks in March or April and offers a bewitching and captivating fragrance of the delicate pink almond blossom. One can hardly imagine that this natural spectacle takes place in Germany and not somewhere in Tuscany. Believe us – you don’t want to miss it!
