Tour
Use the day of arrival to explore the beautiful old town of Stralsund. Marvel at the churches, the monastery or the fascinating marine museum.
You get along the Strelasund, through alleyways, to Brandenhagen to the sea raven colony. On the other side of the Strelasund is the peninsula of Zudar. Soon the silhouette of the Greiswald cathedral and of the town will be visible. Casphar David Friedrich painted the monastery ruin Eldena. Accommodation in Greifswald.
Through the silent back-country you will get to Wolgast, the gate to island Usedom. On untroubled bikeways you cycle over the island to the seaside. Over Trassenheide the way goes though dike forests to the seaside resort Zinnowitz. Accommodation in Wolgast, Zinnowitz or Karlshagen.
Old hotels preserved the flair of former times in Zinnowitz. From the beach you can see the ample coastline from Peenemünde to Koserow. The way leads along between Baltic Sea and backwater to the three sisters Bansin, Heringsdorf and Ahlbeck. Accommodation in one of the three imperial spas.
Heringsdorf is the dressiest and oldest seaside resort at Usedom. It is connected over the promenade, where you may take a stroll, with Bansin and Ahlbeck. Pretty soon, you leave the colourful life of the Seaside resorts behind and dive into the silence of the back-country. The land is rich in history of former times. From the coast you will get over the island, where today European otter are still native in lakes and brooks, to Usedom the town of which the island received its name. You will leave Usedom and will enjoy a transfer by train from Anklam to Stralsund. Accommodation in Stralsund.
After breakfast individual departure. From Stralsund good train connections to Berlin or Hamburg. On request it is possible to book further nights in Stralsund.

Condition of cycle paths
You cycle mostly on cycle paths and rarely traveled side roads, somtimes on hiking trails and very seldom on country lanes. On the first stage, the route leads over a cobblestone alley, but it can be avoided. The route is very well signposted.

You have the choice between ladies' and men's touring bikes with back-pedalling or freewheel (both with hub gears). Children's bikes are also available on request.
The touring bikes with back-pedalling have 7 or 8 gears (depending on availability).
The touring bikes with freewheel have 7 gears. On request and depending on availability, we can also offer 24-speed touring bikes with freewheel. The request for 24 gears will then be noted, but cannot be guaranteed.

Extra costs that are not included in the tour price
