Intro

This easy loop in Canton Thurgau holds a surprise in store for adventurous souls.

트레일 정보

You set off from Weinfelden station suspecting nothing. The first two kilometres take you out of the little town and into open country.

Just before reaching the Thur river, you find yourself on an unmetalled lane, where the adventure begins. The surface is fairly smooth and fine for road cycling. A few kilometres later you leave the Thur and rejoin the asphalt near Sulgen.

Not for long, though: as you clock up the kilometres, the well-maintained unmetalled stretches become more numerous and call to mind the Strade Bianche in Tuscany – a route that the world’s cyclists dream of pedalling one day. All this in the enchanting Thurgau countryside, passing family farms and orchards famous for the quality of their apples.

It seems almost a shame to be back in Weinfelden so soon. Welcoming villages, no traffic, a hint of adventure… Canton Thurgau is, without a doubt, a cyclist’s paradise.

Tip from the Grand Tours Project
Try cycling this loop with reduced pressure in the tyres for enhanced comfort and enjoyment on the unmetalled parts of the loop.
