About travelintom
Die meisten getrackten Touren werden Radtouren sein – habe ich immer schon gern gemacht. Ob im Alltag durch meine Heimatstadt Langen und das Rhein-Main-Gebiet, mit dem Tourenrad über’s Wochenende oder im Urlaub unterwegs oder mit dem Mountainbike in mehr oder weniger moderate Höhen – es macht viel Spaß.
Gelegentlich ist eine Wanderung dabei - Landschaft noch intensiver erleben.

Today's tour took us from the pretty seaside resort of Cascais to our destination, Lisbon. The route mostly ran directly along the sea, often on wide, dedicated bike paths. The moment we first saw Lisbon's Tagus Bridge, which we then slowly approached, was sensational.
A stop in Belem to buy and immediately

Today we cheated: We were "transferred" from Figueira da Foz to Sintra, along with our bikes. Only about 35 km remained of the description, which allowed for an extensive visit to Sintra (very touristy, so you could either spend more time visiting the palaces or escape quickly). The tour then begins

The description of this stage promised "...kilometers of straight road through hilly dune landscapes." That's true: endless straight roads, sometimes seemingly through a desert landscape because the vegetation had been plowed under (due to a wind farm under construction?). Still exciting, at least for

The tour led from the Sunday-quiet town of Aveiro to the lively Costa Nova. The small town is known for its colorfully striped houses, and they are truly quite pretty. The short leg beckoned us to stop at the beach, but the strong wind drove us into the dunes. The route continued along the Ria, the lagoon

Today our tour took us from Furadouro to Aveiro, a city whose canals emulate those of Venice or Amsterdam.
The route along the lagoon offered exciting views, and the shallow structure of the lagoon provided ever-changing impressions. Our destination, Aveiro, also has a lot to offer, from Art Nouveau-style

Today, after four days in Porto, we set off on our bike tour toward Lisbon. With a strong tailwind, it makes no difference whether you're riding a pedelec or a bio-bike.
We cycled almost effortlessly along a beautiful route with plenty of beach sections and through fragrant pine forests to Furadouro

An ADFC tour with a long S-Bahn journey. Since December 2024, it has been possible to take the S-Bahn directly to Friedberg. There, we took a quick look around the pretty town, especially the large and impressive castle complex.
Friedberg Castle was probably founded between 1171 and 1180 on the orders

With eight fellow riders, we started the tour to Otzberg in perfect weather. The group was evenly split between pedelecs and eco-bikers, while I myself swung the balance towards pedelecs.
At this time of spring, the forest is a bright green, but compared to the previous tour a week ago, the blossoming

The pre-tour for an ADFC tour on April 27th. A beautiful route, especially at this time of year: blooming orchards, rapeseed fields, everything green, and the forest awash with lush greenery. However, Otzberg Fortress is under construction; not even the viewing platform outside the castle walls is accessible

Thinking about tomorrow today: In August, I'll be leading an ADFC day tour to the arboretum in Eschborn. Source of the tour: Herbert (here: F71).
Other highlights include the Rosarium in Hattersheim, Höchst Castle Square, and the Main River ferry. This was the preliminary tour on a beautiful but relatively cool June day.
