Welcome to a fairytale panoramic tour through the Bavarian mountains where nature is both the backdrop and the director. The slogan "Every mile - a smile!" sums up this route perfectly.

One of Germany's most beautiful avenues where the journey is the destination. A cultural legacy that has lost none of its charm today.

Delicious food plus beautiful scenery, castles and palaces, museums, lakes and fantastic swimming pools - fun for everyone.

Journey back into the Middle Ages. Travel from castle to castle, from one magnificent stately home to another, following in the footsteps of the knights and counts palatine all the way. Welcome to Germany's castles and palaces!

Love of life, wine, good old-fashioned Gemütlichkeit and award-winning cuisine, all in celebration of the grape. The idea of a tourist route must have been a good one, or it wouldn't have been so widely copied elsewhere.

The land sandwiched between the North and East coast of Germany is a well established holiday resort but not many are aware of its cheese-making traditions. Did you know that over 100 fine cheeses originate from this area?

Home of fairies and princes, of Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. Ever-changing, yet always magical – this is the Fairytale Route. Fairytales, myths and legends – and one celebration after another.

Head for the bends! Travel the German "Route 66" across the length and breadth of the Federal Republic with the sun on your face and the wind at your back. This truly is touring & biking heaven!

Dairy farmers have opened up their farms to cyclists of all ages. They demonstrate their milking systems and explain how professional dairy farming is practised today.

Surprises galore await you in the Ruhrgebiet region. Enjoy culture in the gasometer, dancing in the old colliery washhouse, German beer on a brewery tour and lots more besides!
