Paris-London by bike

Lo scorso giugno è stata inaugurata una pista ciclabile che collega la cattedrale di Notre-Dame de Paris con il Ponte di Westminster. Il percorso in realtà si snoda per due possibili vie: una attraversa
Chantilly e Beauvais, ed è lunga 310km; l’altra passa per Bray-et-Lu e Gisors, snodandosi per 246km. I più allenati ci possono impiegare un paio di giorni. Chi invece volesse scegliere questo viaggio come possibile vacanza può riservare una o due settimane. L’allenamento però è bene iniziarlo subito. Se non ve la sentite, ma non volete nemmeno rinunciare a questo viaggio, allora sappiate che ci sono diverse possibilità di alleggerirlo percorrendo alcuni tratti in treno.

Croatia's MTB root

Given the undulating and unspoilt local terrain, hiking is an obvious attraction, and hundreds of kilometres of trails cover the Lika and Karlovac regions. In the last few years, local tourist authorities have started to promote tourism to the area through the creation of trail maps and improved trail markings. Many of the region’s trails are also suitable for mountain bikers, including a 51km circular route from the town of Generalski Stol and a 26km route along the Mrežnica river from Juzbašići village.
