Europe - 17 countries in about 4 months
Hi, I thought I had posted this a few hours ago but I can't see it anywhere so I'm posting it again, apologies if it's repeated anywhere on this website.
I'm planning to go round Europe for the next four months on a V Strom 650, visiting approximately 17 countries en route. Starting in early June I plan to travel through France, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Italy, Corsica, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Greece, Turkey, (maybe Iran), Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland. I'm guessing at a week for each country, trying to take in the best sights in all of them. I know you can't cover everything but at least I'm going to have a go. I'm going to be camping for most of it, but occasionally using small hotels, particularly in Turkey.
I have considered extending this trip into Iran, Pakistan and India, but I'm still mulling this over. If I did that it would be after the Turkey section and would probably be around October
I'm basically going to be working my way West to East across Europe between June and October. Any riders who feels like joining me for any part of it are very welcome.
Also, there's a pillion seat going free but that's for ladies only I'm afraid.
I'm guessing that the dates below might be a rough idea of the timeline of the route
JUNE:
France and Spain, Portugal
JULY:
(Morocco maybe), Italy, Corsica, Slovenia,
AUGUST:
Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Greece,
SEPTEMBER:
Turkey, (maybe Iran), Bulgaria, Romania
October:
Hungary, Austria, Switzerland
None of this is set in stone and the map below shows a rough guide to the route but it's not exact.
