Czechia
Welcome to Czechia - an ideal cycle tourist destination with a high concentration of tourist attractions and settlements combined with varied landscapes. From flat lands along the Elbe trail and through the South Moravia wine region to rolling hills and mountainous areas along most of the borders, cycling in Czechia is everything but boring. The country boasts over 2,000 castles, 12 UNESCO sites and numerous natural heritage sites and combines cycling adventures, excellent food, world famous beers (but also excellent wines) and good transportation connections, all of this for reasonable prices.
