Prague Vienna Greenways

Cycling from Prague to Vienna might sound a bit daunting, but the Greenways web of trails of 250-350 miles that link these two capital cities are a great way for cyclists of any proficiency to meander around the Austrian and Czech Republic countryside, discovering little towns and heritage sites at your own pace. The Greenways wind down old salt, silver and amber trade routes, past castles and historic villages, which are all small, safe and sheltered roads, so there are no worries about oncoming traffic. There are opportunities to stop off and take part in activities such as canoeing, bird watching or for the adults; sampling local Moravian wines or the many varieties of Czech beer. You can plan your trip around whatever landmarks you like, and in the summer you’ll often come across local concerts and festivals after which you can just hop back on your bikes and get going.
