The Castle Route

A 660 km signposted cycling route primarily on asphalt divided into 14 different stages. Ride the entire route or just take a single stage - you can completely decide where you want to start and in which direction you want to cycle.

The route passes through the characteristic landscape that Fyn and the islands' 123 castles and manors have influenced over time.

Don't worry - even though it's called the Manor Route, you'll naturally also come across a sea of other sights in Funen, farm shops, cozy B&Bs, and fantastic viewpoints.
