Cycling holiday on Funen

Odense is the starting point for your bike tours. Discover an untouched natural paradise that also bears the name "Garden of Denmark". Dreamy villages, romantic castles, stately homes and lively harbours await you on the island. A trip to the island of Ærø will immerse you in the world of the Danish South Seas. Once you’ve filled up on fresh Baltic Sea air, you’ll return to your cosy hotel in the evening and bring the day to a close with a delicious dinner in one of the local restaurants in typical Danish comfort. This cycling holiday on Funen offers easy cycling on the best bike paths.
