Freedom

Fresh air, sunshine, exercise and the freedom to do whatever you feel like. That is biking on Gotland. Gotland is since long known as the island for bike rides. The beautiful winding roads going through bewitching forests, open fields, along the coast and along dizzying limestone precipices.

As a biker you get to see the completely marvellous floral splendour along the road sides. The colours, the aromas and the buzzing on the roadside makes you feel so good. For the biker that doesn't want to exercise too much there are many interesting places to stop at. Everything from the medieval churches that lies conveniently close to historical remaining from the Vikings.

Why not have lunch in one of the old fishing villages you pass, or take a coffee in one of all the coffee shops that are only open in the summertime. There are so many places to stop that the travel company might start to question all the pauses.

FOR A SUCCESSFUL VACATION To be able to fully enjoy your vacation you should start biking some at home before you leave. A tip is to try to bike as far as you are planning to do during your daytrips to see if the distance is convenient for you. Don't forget to drink a lot when you bike.

THOROUGHFARE GOTLANDS Thoroughfare Gotland was prepared in 1982-1992. The main fare is 500 km and marked with blue signs. Many biking tourists chose to follow the thoroughfare for a while and then turn off to less trafficked roads.
