Have you seen the Polish North Pole? A beaver? Or the centre of Europe?
WARSAW - VILNIUS
Bike tour Warsaw - Vilnius: Let’s connect by bicycle!
August 2 - 16
Join us for a bike tour at the border! The border of the New Europe!
Where nobody has been before. A region, much more unknown and interesting as Spain, Scotland or Sweden.
We’ll discover East Poland and Lithuania by bicycle. Where are deep forests, blue rivers, wooden villages – and a lot of hospitality! A challenge for cyclists of any kind.
On our route there are three Polish National Parks, with such well sounding names as “the Beaver National Park”, two Lithuanian National and two Regional Parks. And – read it to be astonished – even two places, that are called “the centre of Europe”!
A mirror of European history: From the rebuild Old town of Warsaw through a region, mixed with peoples, like it is difficult to find a similar one: Not only Poles and Lithuanians lived here, but as well Jews, Russians, Byelorussians, the Tatar tribe of the Karaites (!), Moslems. Here are the traces of knight fights in the Middle Ages, as well as Napoleon’s Great Army on it’s way to Moscow and back. And the sad symbols of the Second World War: Left Jewish grave yards, the vast blocks of the Soviet era as living quarters and agrarian factories.
But much new as well: How the Lithuanians made a park out Lenin’s, Stalin’s and other communist fighters’ bronze sculptures. And finally arrive to Vilnius – The city where East and West meet: Numerous churches and narrow lanes remind its glorious past. Climb the upper castle and take a view. And find out, why it is cultural world heritage of UNESCO.
Be the first to discover this region! And do it together with local people.
The bike tours “BaltiCCycle” are organised by Lithuanians and Poles. For the unbeatable price of 35 Euro per week (50 per cent discount for residents of Central and Eastern Europe) you’ll spent your most beautiful and mystical holidays and help the local cyclists in building cycle structures.
By bike through the new Europe into the new Europe.
