The Lakes Route in Switzerland before Gstaad
Cycling Thread > >

Cycling routes in the mountains mix the excitement of climbing with the peace of nature. They often follow scenic river valleys, surrounded by mountain ridges.

Cycling routes along rivers offer exceptional comfort, appreciated by both beginners and seasoned cyclists. These paths are often flat, sometimes gently slope downhill along the river's current, making them perfect for relaxed, leisurely rides. They frequently avoid busy roads, allowing you to enjoy the peace and proximity to nature. Along these riverside routes, you’ll often find benches, picnic spots and viewpoints, providing convenient opportunities for breaks during cycling journey.
