A great increase in popularity for cycling holidays

The Dutch are fans of cycling holidays. We already saw a large increase in the number of cycling holidays last summer and this trend will continue this year. We are already known as people that do everything by bike in our daily life, but this is also becoming increasingly important during our holidays.

The Dutch are aware that they have to live healthier and that more exercise contributes to this. A cycling holiday provides a perfect balance between being active and at the same time enjoying the local gastronomy in our holiday destination. Our interest in sustainable holidays is also growing. Cycling also provides a lot of relaxation and mindfulness. Due to the limited speed, travelers are able to experience everything optimally.

European countries are doing a lot to increase the comfort of recreational cyclists. Many cycle paths and routes have already been laid out.

Let’s be realistic. As soon as the light turns green, it will not be the case that all journeys will be possible again. Air travel in particular will be gradually expanded. Certain countries or regions will also remain red or orange, because those countries do not yet allow tourists in. In addition, one must take into account that he must be in possession of a “corona passport”.

However, the general expectation is that much more will be possible in the coming summer holidays.
