EuroVelo 10 Baltic Sea Cycle Route

Lithuania

Breath taking views of the colossal sand dunes on the Curonian Spit (on UNESCO‘s World Heritage List); relaxing blue flag beaches on the Baltic seashore, and more than 500 years of authentic culture and architecture is all within reach on EuroVelo 10! The route in Lithuania leads for more than 100 km along the sea from the Latvian border in the North to the Russian (Kaliningrad Region) border in the South, with the historic coastal town of Klaipeda in the middle. Due to good ferry connections with Germany and Sweden, many tourists tend to begin or end their bike ride in Klaipeda, which is a bustling, modern town offering many excellent leisure options.
