FAQs on cycling holidays with Velontour

Which region is ideal for a relaxing cycling holiday?

Regions featuring rivers, lakes and valleys are particularly well suited to relaxed, leisurely cycling. These include, for example, Burgenland around Lake Neusiedl, Thurgau on Lake Constance, Upper Bavaria and Grado. Which destination is right for you, however, depends on the elevation profile, your preferred length of day and your personal holiday rhythm.

Where can I combine lakes and mountains on a cycling holiday?

Lakes and mountain scenery can be combined particularly well in Carinthia, the Salzburg region, Upper Bavaria, South Tyrol and Eastern Switzerland. Lake Wörthersee, Lake Chiemsee, Lake Walensee and the lakes of the Salzburg region each offer very different landscapes. Velontour guides you from the regional overview to the right region and destination.

Which cycling region is best suited to wine and local cuisine?

Burgenland, Styria, South Tyrol, Heidiland and Liechtenstein are just some of the regions ideal for wine and regional cuisine. There, wine villages, wine taverns, vineyards, farm shops and regional inns are all part of the holiday experience. You can find out exactly which culinary stops are accessible on the respective destination and tour pages below.

Where can I go cycling and see the sea at the same time?

Grado in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Emilia-Romagna and parts of Slovenia are particularly well suited to cycling holidays by the sea. Grado combines the lagoon with the northern Adriatic; Emilia-Romagna offers both the coast and the hinterland; whilst Slovenia combines the Adriatic coast with its green countryside. This makes it easy to combine cycling with swimming and Mediterranean cuisine.

How do I find the right destination for my cycling holiday?

Start with three questions: What kind of landscape would you like to experience? Would you prefer to cycle from a single base or move on to different places? And what do you consider to be part of the enjoyment? Lakes, rivers, the Alps, wine country or the seaside will quickly narrow down your options. You can then use Velontour to select a specific region, accommodation, cycle tour or cycling holiday.
