In Germany, the cycle route follows the meandering Rhine, revealing the millennia-old history of this river that has been crucial to trade since Antiquity. Then it’s on to the Czech Republic. The route winds its way through medieval towns such as Cheb and the thermal gems of Karlovy Vary, before venturing on to Prague, where the majesty of the Vltava mingles with history.

EuroVelo 4 ends in Eastern Europe, crossing southern Poland and Ukraine. This section has not yet been fully developed, and the geopolitical situation in the country means that it is not yet fully developed.
