Overview

The European cycle path g 1 (European cycle track g 1, euro-route g 1) is until Tallinn in Estonia put on as wheel remote way by Calais in France. The first sections were already built around 1980 in the Netherlands, in the Weser mountain country and in the cathedral country. As an inventor of the g 1 the former director of building of circles of the circle Hans is considered leisure-breaks into. On its initiative the districts barks, circle Coesfeld, Warendorf, lip Detmold and agreed on a continuous guidance of the cycle track. In the future it is to lead from Boulogne sur Mer at the French channel coast to pc. Petersburg in Russia across more than 3,000 km and contribute thus to the people communication in Europe.

With the guidance it was made certain to a large extent that also for untrained cyclists and families the distance in appropriate stages on an attractive route is to be mastered. Appropriate overnight accomodation and food supply possibilities are close at the way. The way continues to lead the northern edge of resin (Goslar) for 915 km by Germany of the Netherlands border (Vreden) by the cathedral Muenster, over the Teutoburger forest, across anhaltisches area and Brandenburg to potsdam, Berlin and by Switzerland and the Oderbruch to the Polish border (Poland)

Except in the many passages by routistic interesting places, the route runs usually by nature and off the roads. In many regions the ways are already very well developed.
