Holiday information

 

A cycling holiday on Rügen

We’re not quite sure what took us to Rügen, off the sunniest, north-easternmost corner of Germany, but we’re very glad we found it. This full-circle journey, beginning and ending in picturesque Stralsund on the mainland, will appeal to those with a sense of adventure and a yen for the unusual. On an island seemingly made for cycling, there are seaside eccentricities galore and a surprise – and delight – around every bend.
A kooky-looking coastline offers white-sand beaches, towering chalk cliffs and fishing villages that exude charm and nostalgia; while a huge black submarine, Hitler’s vast and ghostly holiday camp and the odd spluttering Trabant hark back to half-hidden decades behind the Iron Curtain. Nowadays, the rows of iconic, striped Strandkörbe (ingenious contraptions that put normal deckchairs to shame), and Rasender Roland – the ‘Rushing Roland’ narrow-gauge steam train – are emblematic of a holiday hideaway that is held in great affection by Germans. Rügen is an unexpected delight.

 

Itinerary

The key to Inntravel holidays is flexibility. You can start on the day of your choice, and are free to add extra nights.

We have not provided elevation profiles for any of the routes on this holiday because it is largely on the flat.
  • The average maximum daytime temperatures and monthly rainfall relate to the nearest weather station and are intended as a guide only.

  • Arrival in Stralsund
    Night 1: at Hotel am Jungfernstieg (where you spend one night). Alternatively, upgrade to Romantik Hotel Scheelehof.
    As your first night's accommodation is on the day of travel, Day 1 is your first day of cycling.
  • Stralsund to Baabe: 59km; shorter options: 17km or 26km
    Unless you would prefer a shorter day (in which case you take the train from Stralsund to either Bergen or Putbus; pay locally), you cycle across the bridge to Rügen, perhaps casting an admiring glance back at Stralsund, this handsome harbour city that was second in importance only to Lübeck in the Hanseatic League. Pedal through refined and dignified Putbus – an ideal refreshment stop – as you take in quaint villages of thatched-roof cottages, flower-filled gardens, and a terrain of wetlands and lush cornfields. Continue along trails through woodland to reach Baabe near the island’s south-easternmost corner. Here, a man with a rowing boat greets you and ferries you and your bikes a final few metres to the waterfront Solthus am See – a memorable ending to your ride.
    Leaving Stralsund, you pedal on to Baabe
  • Circular route from Baabe: 35km
    With two nights in Baabe, you can enjoy a fabulous day’s cycling through pine woods and along the coast: take in glimpses of long, sandy beaches between Lobbe and Thiessow; enjoy a wilder seaside stretch near Klein Zicker; then pootle leisurely alongside the beach between Göhren and Sellin. Two of many highlights are the 394-metre-long Sellin Pier – with its magnificent, Belle-Époque-style pavilion and restaurant – and the Übersee Café in pretty Göhren where you can sample a Sanddorn ice cream, flavoured with juice from the island’s ubiquitous sea buckthorn berries.
    Sellin Pier, on the route around Baabe
  • Baabe to Lohme: 41km
    There’s lots to take in during today’s ride up the island’s eastern flank. Cycle along quiet roads and woodland tracks, and call in at the impressive Jagdschloss Granitz hunting lodge, whose tallest, fabulous cylindrical stone tower offers panoramic views. Next, continue to the elegant spa resort of Binz with its ornate, 19th-century villas and beachfront restaurants. Just five kilometres beyond this, however, comes a stark and eerie contrast: the vast, reinforced-concrete holiday camp of Prora, commissioned by Hitler in the 1930s but never quite completed, so that it retains a mysterious atmosphere. Pedalling onward, look out for Steinernes Meer (a field resembling a “stony sea” of flint that is something of a geological wonder) on your way to Lohme, where you check in at the Panorama Hotel for a two-night stay. As the name suggests, you can enjoy wonderful sea views from its splendid, cliff-top location.
    Binz beach, on the route from Baabe to Lohme
  • Circular route from Lohme: 11km; longer option: 28km
    Today brings plenty more discoveries, and we recommend some walking and sightseeing as well as cycling in order to take in the Jasmund National Park. Its chief attractions are the ancient, UNESCO-listed beech forest with its inviting footpaths; and the mighty chalk cliffs immortalised in the paintings of Caspar David Friedrich, the great German Romantic artist who honeymooned here in 1818. Another highlight is the superb Königsstuhl visitor centre, whose interactive tour is like taking a journey back in time; and you can poke around for Baltic amber amid the driftwood on the beach down below.
    You can also extend your ride down to the harbour at Sassnitz, where the impression of being in a time warp is enhanced by the presence of HMS Otus – formerly a British Navy submarine and now a fascinating museum.
  • Lohme to Vaschvitz: 35km; longer option: 59km
    Starting out through a lush, green landscape, you head towards the attractive seaside town of Glowe, from where you follow a cycle path through pine woods just behind the coast, with easy access to the beach for a paddle or a swim. An optional extension takes you around the coast to Vitt, a delightful fishing village, and Kap Arkona by the island’s most northerly tip.

    Either way, you clock up the kilometres during the latter part of today’s ride, traversing wide open terrain that nonetheless offers good birdwatching opportunities, especially for spotting migrating cranes. Your destination is Vaschvitz's Aedenlife Hotel & Resort, surrounded by nature reserves.
    Approaching Kap Arkona
  • Vaschvitz to Stralsund: 25km
    Your first destination today is the small harbour at Schaprode, from where we recommend a mid-morning ferry across to traffic-free Hiddensee. This peaceful, quirky and seahorse-shaped island is an intriguing place to explore, and again we suggest mixing in some walking and sightseeing, including an excursion to the lighthouse on foot. Then it’s time for one more journey by boat – a triumphant return to Stralsund, where you complete the circle by admiring the city’s striking skyline during your approach. Spend your last evening wandering the atmospheric Altstadt (‘Old Town’), perhaps pausing for a local Störtebeker beer before choosing a restaurant in or around the cobbled Alter Markt for dinner.
 

Accommodation

You stay in a pleasing mix of characterful hotels.

To make your holiday all the more special, opt for our upgrade hotel in Stralsund. Whichever hotel you choose, it is well worth booking an additional night in the harbour city of Stralsund, as there is much to discover.

Please note: most beds in German hotels are normally one large base with two mattresses/duvets. We refer to these as 'Austrian Twins' and they are locally regarded to serve requests for both double and twin bedded rooms. Separate twin beds or traditional double beds with one large mattress are rare and cannot be guaranteed.

    This list of flight options should be used as a guide only, and you should check each airline’s website for current routes, frequency and schedules. Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season. You should also heed the latest flight arrival time and earliest flight departure time stated in the connecting travel section, as it may not be possible to arrange connecting travel outside these times. Please do not book your flights until we have confirmed your accommodation to you. Alternatively, our expert reservations team will be happy to offer advice and to make flight bookings for you for any of the options listed above. We charge £35 per person for our flight booking service. Your flights are then covered by our package-booking conditions, which give you greater protection in the event of delay or cancellation, as well as providing ATOL cover.

  • Prices below are based on 2 people travelling together. If you are travelling solo or as a party of 3 or more and our arrangements include a taxi, please contact us for prices; additional passengers often pay less.

    Unless otherwise stated, connecting travel by rail or bus tends to be from the city centre station, rather than from its airport, and connections between the two should be paid for locally.

    If flying via Hamburg, please note that your connecting travel price may depend on your flight times (there may be a long wait for the next regional train, making the more expensive ICE train the best option).

    Where a price range is given, the price you pay depends on your date of travel.

    Spend plenty of time exploring Stralsund and its lovely buildings before heading off to the beautiful island of Rugen over the excellent bridge. Definitely take provisions on the first day, even in Putbus we struggled to find a cafe. The island is very scenic with a mix of pretty villages with thatched 'cottages', small harbours, forest trails, an historic hunting lodge, national parks, good ferries, excellent cycle paths and signage and superb hotels. We can recommend Fische Brotchen for lunch in Vitte on Hiddensee, Peter's Bakery near Prora for lunch and Fischermanns on Stralsund waterfront for dinner. The pull/push up Jagdschlos Granitz is well worth it as is the climb up the tower for the view. Also the Konigsstuhl NP visitor centre. Advise you get there early to take the audio tour as it gets very busy and is only a short cycle through the woods from the hotel. Lovely to feel you are definitely on the German holiday trail - very few, if any other English guests apparent and we were given friendly welcomes everywhere.

    Lovely routes around an island with an extremely interesting history. The contrast between quiet, rural routes and the fabulous towns was amazing. We wish we'd stayed an extra night at Solthus am See, it was so peaceful and welcoming. The visit to Prora and the Document Centre was a highlight for us. We would also recommend an extra night in Stralsund to experience its history and museums. Finally, the holiday notes mention music nights in the Hotel Scheelehof bar and weekly regattas. If we had known about those in advance, we would have reviewed our holiday dates to experience one or the other.

    We had a wonderful holiday on Rugen. The sun shone every day and we enjoyed getting to know this beautiful and quite remote island. We loved that we never heard an english voice - it is definitely a holiday destination for Germans. A surprisingly small number of people spoke english which added to the adventure! We found the hotel at Solthus am See charming and set in a beautiful location. If we did the holiday again we'd have an extra night there as there are lots of things to do in the area and the hotel is well connected with tourist trains/ferries etc to make exploration possible. We were travelling in asparagus season so every restaurant had a specific asparagus menu which we enjoyed! The cycling was virtually all on cycle paths - Rugen is really an island geared up for cyclists. Our bikes were sturdy trekking bikes well suited to all the different terrain. We highly recommend this holiday.

FAQs

If you have any questions relating to this or any other Inntravel holiday, our friendly travel experts will be happy to help. You might also find our General FAQs section helpful.
  • Our chosen bike rental shop will provide you with a hybrid bike with 24 gears; a waterproof map case on handlebars; panniers/saddlebags; pump; puncture repair kit; and a lock. Electric bikes are available as an upgrade (see price panel), subject to availability, and must be requested at the time of booking. The bike shop also has a limited number of tandems.
  • No. We recommend that you bring your own.
  • Yes, we will provide GPX tracks for this holiday prior to departure so that you can follow your route on your smartphone or dedicated GPS device if you wish. (We also provide maps and our tried-and-tested route notes, which remain the principal means of navigation).
  • We’ll send you route notes and maps 2-3 weeks before your holiday. The route notes not only contain directions to get from hotel to hotel, but also include practical information about places of interest and eateries along each route, plus cultural information about the area. On mornings when you are moving between hotels, you leave your luggage in reception as you leave, and it will be transferred ahead to your next accommodation so that all you need to take with you are a camera, sun cream, drinks, food and waterproofs.

    For more detailed information, see our cycling holidays in Europe page.
  • You are responsible for damage to or loss of the rental bike while it is hired to you. Always be careful to lock it up, ideally to an immovable object, and remove all easy-to-steal accessories whenever you leave it unattended.
  • We can book a wide range of routes from the UK with a variety of airlines. As well as being more convenient for you to book all elements of your holiday together, it also means that we’ll accept liability for your travel arrangements, so if things go wrong, such as the airline going bust, we’ll make suitable alternative arrangements for you. The fee for this service is £35 per person (£15 for children aged 2-11). More information on flights >
  • Absolutely! We are experts in tailored rail travel. Making use of sleeper trains or stopovers in cities along the route, we can get you from London to virtually anywhere in mainland Europe. We can even make arrangements to Mallorca, Sicily and Norway with a combination of ferries and rail. Please contact us to discuss your plans.
  • We can’t book flights that originate outside the UK, but if you wanted to book your own flights to London (or elsewhere in the UK), we can make all onward travel arrangements (including flights) from there. Alternatively, if you are booking your own flights to an airport in continental Europe that’s appropriate for your holiday, we can book onward rail travel and/or taxis. More information about how we can tailor holidays for customers outside the UK >
  • Since our holidays are self-guided, we recommend calling us for a chat about your plans before making a booking, especially if it’s the first time you’ve booked with us.
    The price panel shows the supplement for a single room and also the single traveller charge (this covers (luggage) transfers and other costs which are usually shared between two people).
  • Once you’ve decided on your exact itinerary (our travel experts will be happy to offer advice), you need to provide us with your party’s details, either by phone or via our booking form. At this point we also ask you to pay a deposit so that we can secure a room for you immediately on confirming availability with the hotel(s). If it turns out that we can’t secure the accommodation for the holiday you’ve requested, or offer an acceptable alternative, we’ll refund your deposit promptly and in full. After booking your accommodation and other key elements, we'll then book your travel (or you can do so if you’re making your own arrangements) and send you a Booking Confirmation and Invoice.

  • Yes, it’s something we insist on, even for holidays in the UK. The vast majority of holidays go smoothly, but when things go wrong, it can be expensive to put them right. Buying a new pair of walking boots after your suitcase is stolen mightn’t seem so bad, but the bill for being airlifted down from a mountain with a broken leg or flown home while still recovering from an illness or accident can incur a five or six-figure bill.

    Many insurers offer travel insurance (you can find details on our insurance page of a policy that you may like to consider if you are a UK resident), but you do need to make sure that you’re covered for medical emergencies – including falling ill with Covid-19 while on holiday – and repatriation. We also recommend that you are covered for other eventualities, such as cancellation and loss of luggage and passports.

    When you purchase a policy, be sure to check that it covers the activities you'll be doing on holiday and that it is adequate for your own individual needs.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are in possession of the correct travel documents, with the correct validity. If you’re a UK citizen, you need a full British passport to travel to Germany, but not a visa (please note, however, that a new travel authorisation system is being introduced). If you are a citizen of another country, you’ll need to check requirements with the national embassy or your own consulate.

    Current information regarding vaccinations and travel health advice for UK citizens can be found through the Travel Health Pro website. You must make sure you have adequate insurance cover for illness, accidents and repatriation (see the insurance question). You should also apply for a Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) if your EHIC has expired (if you have a still-valid EHIC, you can use this until it expires).
  • The official language is German. The currency is the Euro. German time is GMT/UTC + 1. It uses Daylight Saving Time, so in summer is on BST + 1.
  • For information on the practicalities of travel now that the UK is no longer part of the European Union, visit www.gov.uk/visit-eu-switzerland-norway-iceland-liechtenstein.
  • The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) provides up-to-date, country-by-country travel advice, as well as information on security, local laws, passports and visas for UK citizens.
