Itinerary

Cycle through the Bohemian countryside from the fairytale city of Prague to Dresden on the Elbe River. This leisurely cycling holiday begins in the storybook city of Prague, where cobbled streets and Gothic spires set the scene for a remarkable adventure. Pedal along the tranquil Vltava and Elbe rivers, winding through a picturesque corridor of castles, vineyards and untouched countryside. Discover the charm of historic Melnik in the heart of Czech wine country, explore the fortress towns of Terezin and Litomerice, and ride beneath the dramatic Bohemian Highlands. Visit the romantic ruins of Strekov Castle, the elegant hilltop château in Decin, and cross into Germany to explore the stunning rock formations of Saxon Switzerland National Park. Cycle past the striking Bastei towers before reaching the beautifully restored baroque city of Dresden, home to the grand Zwinger Palace and the iconic Frauenkirche. Blending cultural treasures with spectacular scenery, this cross-border journey is the perfect way to experience the rich heritage and natural beauty of Central Europe at handlebar level.

The journey from Prague to Dresden was excellent. Through the lush Elbe river gorge. The bicycle paths were very well maintained.

Prague to Dresden cycling trip was great. Easy riding along the river free from road traffic and beautiful, constantly changing scenery made the Km’s pass quickly. There were lots of cafes located along the length of the ride as well as plenty of non cycling things to do and explore. Would definitely recommend to others!
