Nav­ig­a­tion with sign­posts or GPS


Cycling with GPS or guidance from the sky

Always on track with GPS! Satellite navigation is a real help to cyclists - the navigation system on the handlebars helps you reach your destination without studying maps. With the GPS unit, you always know exactly where you are and where you are going. But the unit tells you much more than just your current location: current altitude, remaining distance to travel and arrival at your destination are all valuable stats along your tour.
On the pages describing the tours, we also provide you with the relevant details for your GPS unit. Or perhaps you want a bird’s eye view of your tour before you depart? Simply import the KML data into Google Earth and off you go.
