Overview

Discover the Baltic Sea coast by bike! Along scenic routes, you will visit the Palanga Resort and the Curonian Spit National Park, designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The tour begins and ends in the historic coastal town of Klaipėda, Lithuania's third-largest city. You will spend two nights in Nida, the largest town on the Curonian Spit. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing seaside break or explore its unique surroundings on foot, by bicycle, or by canoe. Your route will be partly on the Seaside Cycle Route which was the first officially signposted, high-quality cycle route in Lithuania, opened 7 years ago. This is an easy self-guided or guided bike tour that covers 158 mi. (253 km) over 6 cycling days. You will cycle on low traffic roads (a few stretches on gravel/sandy road) and separate cycle paths (half of the tour), including the Lithuanian Seaside Cycle Route, which is a high-quality signposted route. The terrain is dead flat most of the tour, except for a few hills on the Curonian Spit.
