Bodensee-Koenigssee Radweg
A friend and I are a few hours away from a four-day tour along the Bodensee-Koenigssee Radweg. The route runs west-east in the far south of Germany, and connects the Lake of Constance (Bodensee) with the Koenigssee just out of Salzburg, Austria. I cycled a part of this route last September and found it to be a nice mix of lonely roads and lovely scenery. This will be a fully-loaded tour with tent and camping gear. We don’t expect to go the full distance, but perhaps at least 300 of the 400 or so kilometers. The scenic highlight will be on Friday when we ride past the famous Neuschwanstein Castle.
Progress of the tour will be logged on MapMyTour.com. Have a great weekend everyone!
I LOVE that area of Germany/Austria (my grandmother lived in Augsburg). I remember taking a rowboat out on the Koenigssee one afternoon and then sitting at a cafe for a ’spaetzi’ (I think that’s what the drink is called). Enjoy.
