Czechia has a hilly landscape; and sounds like a great cycle-touring destination for the climber. I’m afraid that might leave me out, or at least lagging far behind; but Czechia looks like a beautiful country.

This Prague-to-Vienna trip sounds terrific. Eight days long, this tour takes you past castles and vineyards; and well-preserved medieval towns. Sounds good for the history lover. But I suspect that I’d want a triple crankset!

The Bohemia tour is an out-and-back trip, beginning and ending in Prague. You can choose a beginner; advanced; or pro-level tour. I haven’t read the itinerary very closely; but it looks like this one is e-bike-oriented. I find the idea of mounting an ebike intimidating. I’ve got an idea that such a “ride” might run away with me!

The Prague to Dresden tour sounds quite attractive. It’s designed for an age range of 2 to 99; so maybe it isn’t as strenuous as a tour packed with climbing!

I think I might enjoy the Vltava Cycling Trail, thanks to Smetana. But there are castles along the way; as well as museums and churches.

 As always, give some thought to climate and weather. Summers in Czechia are warm; Winters are cold and snowy. Altitude matters too, of course. Higher elevations are, naturally, cooler; and also tend to be more rainy.

Determine what clothing you’re likely to need during your tour. Is rain likely? Will it be chilly?

As of September 2023, with COVID seeming to make a resurgence, maybe it’s not a good time to travel; but Czechia sounds like someplace to keep in mind.

 

ABOUT ME

I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.

I live in New Orleans; and  retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
