    Leaving my home village of Great Missenden behind as it sweeps out of the UK and rides under the English Channel into mainland Europe, this route is quick, smooth, comfortable and shows you a lot of European scenery along the way!

    After catching the Eurotunnel car-carrying shuttle train through the Channel Tunnel to France, the route sweeps round in a grand curve after cutting across Champagne country and Alsace & Lorraine to Strasbourg. Almost straight upon departing Strasbourg, the route crosses the River Rhine, leaving France behind and heading up into the highlands of southern Germany and rural Bavaria's epic countryside scenery. It then stops at Salzburg, tucked cosily into the western corner of north Austria, before climbing up into the mighty Alps, not forgetting to pay a visit to the magnificent fortress at Werfen along the way.

    Ahead is the majestic heart-in-mouth Grossglockner Road, where the route spectacularly traverses the mighty Grossglockner - the highest mountain in Austria - swinging giddily around 36 switchbacks, passing jewel-coloured lakes, forested slopes and wondrous glaciers. At the end of this wonderful mountain road it swings right again and heading up into Vienna, Austria's beautiful capital city - well worth a short stopover!

    After heading along the river Danube to Budapest in Hungary, it heads via Slovakia into stylish Warsaw, Poland's capital city for a few days. After crossing the river Bug into Brest across the Polish border from Terespol, it races through the heart of Belarus before crossing the border into Russia and finishing in Moscow for a few days before heading back home again at the end of a really pleasant adventure!

    CALCULATE CALORIES

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
