A 12000 km journey through Europe, up to the North Cape and back - 2003
NOTE: I do not have a trip description online and therefore it is not as detailed as my Panamericana trip but all GPS points are available upon request.
The route led me through 18 lovely European countries. Different European cultures and scenery made this trip very spectacular. I cycled with Lucia for the first 800km (Austria, Czech Republic and part of Germany), before heading up to Norway on my own. In Norway I met Felix for the first time. We cycled together all the way to the North Cape. On the way down through the Baltic countries, I cycled with Gabriel and Martin.
It was on this first long distance ride that I met Felix and Gabriel. Little did I know at that time that we would cycle and hike together on many other long trips in the years that lay ahead.
Sunrise (3.40 am) at Sumiainen, southern Finland, where I stayed with a business friend for 2 days.
On top of Bernina pass! Back in Switzerland after a great 12000 km journey.
