The best gravel bike trails in Germany

1. The Rein River cycle route
The Reno cycle path, also known as Eurovelo 15, is a mixed asphalt dirt cycle touring itinerary that winds along the bed of the Reno from its sources in Switzerland to its mouth in Holland. The track is interesting even if sometimes, running along the edge of a river for kilometers can get a bit monotonous. However, it remains a solution to consider for a gravel holiday since there are many bike hotels along the route and several villages in which to stop for a break or to sleep. In some sections of the river it is possible to swim.
