This tour is designed for beeing suitable also for families and riders wirth disabilities (shorter distances, possible to rent 2 or 3 wheel electric cargo bike, tandem, family rooms for accommodation).

This 4, 5 or 6 days tour takes you to Estonia’s largest islands – Saaremaa and Hiiumaa. They are a perfect place to spend your cycling holiday - smaller quiet roads, romantic summer resorts, friendly people and of course sea and beaches. Nature is essentially untouched and many visitors find an inner peace on the islands.

Both islands have retained their uniqueness due to their location and isolation. In the villages there are still stone fences and houses with thatched roofs. Dolomite, windmills and the famous local home-brewed beer are considered the symbols of Saaremaa.

You can ride this route in 6 days (5 nights), 5 days (4 nights) or 4 days (3 nights). Perfect for those who would like to see the Islands, but don't have much time. And for those who don't want to spend their whole holiday in Estonia on bikes.
