Day 1: Arrival in Romanshorn

Welcome to Romanshorn, the starting point of your cycling adventure along the splendid Mittelland-Route. Take some time to explore this city on the shore of Lake Constance, rich in history and culture. You'll already feel the excitement of the adventure that is about to begin.

Day 2: Romanshorn - Münchwilen (41 km; +425/-310 m)

You will speed through the gentle hills of Oberthurgau, surrounded by an enchanting view of apples and pears as far as the eye can see. You will ride through the picturesque town of Bischofszell and immerse yourself in the rural landscape of Hinterthurgau until you reach Münchwilen. This stretch will be a symphony of countryside colors and fragrances.

Day 3: Münchwilen - Zürich-Regensdorf (60 km; +550/-630 m)

You will cross the wooded valley of Tösstal where the murmur of the water will never be predictable. Vibrant Winterthur will welcome you with its mix of culture and industry, unassuming but full of surprises. Soon you will hear the roar of planes announcing your arrival in Zurich, where modernity and tradition coexist in harmony.

Day 4: Zürich-Regensdorf - Olten (70 km; +550/-590 m)

You will pedal through the Limmat Valley to the relaxing spa town of Baden. Along the way, you can admire the Gothic stained glass windows of Königsfelden and enjoy the view of yellow irises in the Aare floodplain. A relaxing excursion along the Aare riverbank will finally lead you to Olten.

Day 5: Olten - Biel (76 km; +670/-630 m)

Departure from Olten to cross the baroque city of Solothurn and follow the winding course of the Aare to Dreiseenland, the land of three lakes. This landscape, transformed by humans 130 years ago, will show you how nature and intensive cultivation can coexist. The verdant Seeland awaits you with its vegetable crops.

Day 6: Biel - Murten (47 km; +410/-405 m)

Cycling through Dreiseenland, you will reach the small medieval town of Murten located on the southeast shore of the lake of the same name. This charming town has retained its original structure with picturesque alleys and cozy shady arcades. You will briefly leave the main Mittelland route to explore the regional roads towards Murten.

Day 7: Murten - Yverdon-les-Bains (51 km; +520/-530 m)

From Murten, medieval and evocative, you will reach the small town of Avenches, located in the vast Broye plain between the lakes of Neuchâtel and Murten. This ancient capital of Roman Helvetia boasts a rich historical heritage. You will continue along the shores of Lake Neuchâtel, where the sound of birds and the gentle lapping of the waves will accompany you towards the majestic view of the Jura mountains. More than 100 bird species nest in the Grande Cariçaie, a 40 km long stretch of reed beds and marshes.

Day 8: Yverdon-les-Bains - Lausanne (52 km; +520/-575 m)

You will depart from the fertile Plaine de l'Orbe, framed by Roman mosaics and gentle hills. At Mormont, you will cross the watershed between the Rhône and the Rhine. The scene will change from the wild waters of the Venoge to the small "silver sea" of Lake Geneva. Lausanne will welcome you with its cosmopolitan charm and spectacular views over the lake.

Day 9: Lausanne

After breakfast, end of services and individual departure.

🙋 Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my own bike?
Of course! You can participate in any tour with your own bicycle or rent one. However, we recommend renting because not all spare parts are the same, and only with our bikes can we guarantee the best mechanical assistance.
What kind of assistance will I have during the trip?
You will always have an emergency phone number to refer to. In self-guided trips, you should be able to perform minor repairs, like replacing a tube in case of a puncture, or fixing a dropped chain, but you can always count on local assistance for more serious breakdowns.
How do I know if a tour is within my capabilities?
We classify tours on a scale from 1 to 5 based on length, elevation, and complexity of the itinerary, but if you have doubts, contact us and we will help you find the most suitable journey for you.
What is the cost of renting bicycles?
The rental cost varies depending on the bicycle model and the duration of the tour. For some tours, we offer the possibility to rent different types of bicycles. During the purchase process for each route, you will be asked to indicate your preferred bike type and the corresponding price will be shown, so you can choose freely and without surprises.
Are rented bikes equipped with accessories like lights or bags?
Yes, rented bicycles are equipped with all necessary accessories to comply with road traffic regulations (lights, bell, etc.). A lock, repair kit, and a bag to carry everything you need for a day in the saddle are always included in the rental. Additionally, we offer the option to request extra accessories based on your needs.
