Fully 660 km of signposted cycling route, primarily on asphalt, divided into 14 stages. Ride the full distance or select a specific stage – you can decide for yourself where to start and in which direction to cycle. It couldn’t be easier or more convenient!

The route has been named for the 123 castles and manor houses to be found on Fyn and the islands; if you ride the route, you are sure to see more than a few of them …

And don’t worry, even though we are calling this “The Castle Route”, you will naturally ride by a host of other sights and attractions, farm shops, accommodating B&Bs and breathtaking vantage points.
