      Day 1: Tour Begins In Krakow

      Krakow is one of Europeโ€™s most beautiful cities and has been on UNESCOโ€™s list of World Heritage sites since 1978. It was spared from devastation during World War II and retains a multitude of architectural and urban planning examples from the 12th century. The city is dominated by the Royal Wawel Castle sitting on a rise above the Vistula River. Below the castle lies the Medieval city, home to one of the largest market squares in Europe. Youโ€™ll want to spend at least one extra day, if not two, in Krakow before our tour begins. We fit bicycles this afternoon and will enjoy an inaugural dinner together this evening. Distance 0 km / 0 mi

    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: Krakow Loop

      An invigorating loop out of Krakow takes us to the historic town of Wieliczka this morning. Wieliczka is famous for its salt mine, which operated continuously from the 13th century until 2007. Almost 300 kilometers of passageways spread under the town, and the mine boasts an underground lake, and four chapels carved from the salt by the miners. Weโ€™ll return to Krakow this afternoon to see more of this stunning city. Distance 39 km / 24 mi

      Todayโ€™s ride takes us to the border between Poland and Slovakia and into the heart of the Pieniny National Park. The Pieniny Mountains are one of many small mountain ranges that make up the larger Carpathian Mountain chain and we will pass right through them as we enter Slovakia on a bike and pedestrian-only path along a scenic gorge. This is a rare opportunity and one of the only no-car border crossings we encounter. Our hotel tonight is located in a small mountain town within view of the Pieniny hills. Distance 64 km / 40 mi

      Todayโ€™s ride heads to the heart of the Spis region, a territory rich in northern Slovakian history. Once known for its wealthy traders, craftsmen, and miners, itโ€™s no wonder that two of Slovakiaโ€™s eight UNESCO World Heritage sites are located here. Weโ€™ll continue pedaling through valleys of narrow fields, where grass is still hand-cut by scythes and carried in horse-drawn wagons. Weโ€™ll have two nights in the ancient town of Levoca. Once an important town for commerce. Today, Levoca is probably best known as the home of the medieval sculptor Master Paul of Levoca.
