Velo Europe and Cycling in the Munich area
There are countless possibilities in Munich, around Munich, from and to Munich.
The Bavarian capital is an ideal starting point for the huge offer of the Bavarian network for cyclists (approx. 120 long-distance cycle paths with 8800 km distance).
In Munich itself we can take the bike outside the rush hour 06-09:00 u.16:00-18:00 in all underground and suburban trains. In addition also in the proven regional trains.
Due to the good infra-structure daily star rides with train return are suitable from Munich.
Velo Europe orientates itself from and to Munich basically at the Isar.
Starting from the Museeumsinsel Isar upstream in direction Alps or Isar downstream in direction Freising-Landshut - Deggendorf, where the Isar flows into the Danube.
Munich is directly connected in the Velo Europe network with Innsbruck, Salzburg and Linz in Austria.
In Switzerland it is the two big cities Zurich and Basel over Lake Constance with all options.
