A cycle tour to the south of Funen is on the agenda today. The island is nicknamed the Garden of Denmark. The island is characterized by blooming gardens, deciduous forests and fairytale castles. One of these castles is Egeskov Slot. It is one of the most beautiful moated castles in Europe and boasts an extensive park.

Today's stage of your bike tour from Odense to Kiel takes you via Svendborgsundbroen to the Island of Tåsinge. You pass the sailing town of Troense and reach Valdemars Slot. It was built in the 17th century and is located directly by the sea. You reach Langeland via Siødæmningen, the small island of Siø and Langelandsbroen.

Today's stage of your bike tour from Odense to Kiel takes you inland from the Baltic Sea to Oldenburg.
