Final Route For Europe

I do the following route for 3 months. (15 Juny - 9 October)

Well, the issue is this, I'm going to throw three months filming across Europe and the budget really is not very high, so I'll have to sleep in the open Alire in areas of Scandinavia and eating as they say what I catch one in the supermarket.



Even so, I intend to take advantage of als concentrations that can be found on the road, whether Harleys, other bikes or even go to festivals.


I commented a little path that exists.

Harley will go out with my direction to Valencia Aosta Valley in the Italian Alps. There he runs for more than a week in the Alps, crossing to Interlaken in the Swiss Alps.

During these days will rest because we have to regain strength for the rest of the trip.

My journey from Switzerland to take me to the port of Rostock in Germany, where a ferry to take me to Trelleborg in Sweden.

Swedish travel through the green land up to Oslo in Norway, where I expected to "Bip Bip" hosting a party with friends. (Bip Bip owe you one).

I'll be there one day and I head towards Bergen, Norway's famous harbor where you can eat at the stands of the same port. I will visit several towns in Norway and Trondheim, unique in its streets and houses.



Then seek the "Golden Road" is a road up to North Cape and where you can find to "Trolls" so they say.

I'll cross the line of the Arctic Circle, to go up to North Cape.



I hope I came to North Cape in late July.

After I head towards the North Cape Rovaniemi (Finland), where the house of Santa Claus. Alli will rest a few days to address the port of Helsinki, where they will catch a ferry to Tallinn in Estonia.

I'll cross the bike, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, where you can visit the famous road of the 1000 crosses.

After I passed by the Baltic down to Poland, surely I will go to Auswich.
After Auswich, change my route to get to Ukraine.

Ukraine'll sweep up to the black sea, where I expect "ODESSA" the most cosmopolitan city in the area, but I 'll go down to where I found a hell of camping for 4 euros.

There he will rest for a week.

Cometh from Ukraine to Hungary, will visit the cities most beautiful and guide me to Prague in Czechoslovakia.




I will be there some days and down to Austria, Vienna and want to see the villages of the area.

After my visit to Austria to Italy guide me, I will see Milan, Turin Piedmont Valley ...




In October and,'ll sweep France to get to my land "Valencia."

I reckon I'll be out three months, since my intention is to arrive in Valencia on 9 October.

Well, I hope you enjoy the route. There will be many last-minute changes in the way, but about the one I will be exposed.

A greeting and s for everyone!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
