What to expect
After meeting your guide in central Krakow you will start your bike tour at a relaxed pace. Pass the former home of late Pope John Paul II and head out of Krakow alongside the Vistula River. On route, stop at a kayak slalom course and potentially see the athletes training on the river.
Refuel with snacks (at your own expense) at a riverside cafe, and cycle up to Tyniec Abbey, a Benedictine retreat above the Vistula and Poland’s oldest still-in-use monastery. Head inside to explore the museum and church, and learn about the monks’ daily lives. Browse the shop and perhaps buy some products that have been made by the monks.
Continue through farming villages and the peaceful Wolski Forest and, after inspecting a ruined hillside fortress, head back to Krakow.
Finish at an old quarry — now a lake ringed by cliffs — where John Paul II worked during Poland’s Nazi occupation. Capture the sunset views of Krakow from the clifftops and then finish your tour in the city back at your starting point.
