About the Baltics
Discover the treasures of the #Baltic States by bike and you’ll truly be rewarded. It’s a place of magical castles, endearing villages and dense forests from where fables emerge.
The North East of #Europe is slowly being discovered by travellers, so there really is no better time to be immersed in these wild and natural lands. Head to the Baltics for beautiful #cycle routes and witness the contrasting cultures of #Lithuania, #Latvia and #Estonia.
In Latvia, marvel at the breathtaking forested scenery of Gauja National Park, and uncover Latvia’s vibrant culture as you tour the cobbled streets and Gothic architecture of Riga.
Explore Lithuania’s wild coastal scenery of the Curonian Spit, a World Heritage Listed and previously off-limits sand dune peninsula, and see thousands of crosses rising dramatically out of the Hill of Crosses, Lithuania’s most sacred pilgrimage site.
Cycle through Estonia’s sleepy fishing villages, explore stunning coastal parks and discover the wild beauty of Hiiumaa Island. See the ‘Estonian Switzerland’ of Otepää Lakeland, and uncover Estonia’s unique culture and architecture as you wander the historic streets of Tallinn’s World Heritage Listed Old Town.
Or go further afield to Russia where you’ll cycle the Volga River and make traditional pelmeni (dumplings) with locals.
Whether you’re cycling on a self guided or guided small group #tour, the Baltics is a stunning area for an incredible and unforgettable #vacation.
