Cultural cycle tour through the Baltic States
The eleven-day cycling holiday in the Baltic States offered by Rückenwind Reisen is a guided cultural tour by bike and coach through all three Baltic countries. The cycle tour not only takes you to the capital cities of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, but also to some of the regions and towns where your family originally came from? And perhaps you will meet people there who will become friends and you can share one or two experiences with them that will underpin the new friendship between East and West? Klaipeda on the Baltic Sea, for example, is one of the destinations on this cycle tour in the Baltic States.
Klaipeda in Memelland used to be called Memel; many half-timbered houses, which have since been restored, still stand in the city, which has the country's most important seaport. During your cycling holiday with Rückenwind Reisen, Klaipeda will also be the starting point for a short boat trip to the Curonian Spit. Huge sand dunes characterise this peninsula, which is now a Lithuanian national park. You will cycle to Nida on the spit and spend the night there. Nida is a well-known seaside resort and a former artists' colony. Lovis Corinth and Max Pechstein spent time here. Nida is surrounded by forests, dunes and heathland, which may have served as a backdrop for some of the painters.
