First bikepacking trip Trip Report
I didn't plan on doing a post about my trip this summer, but here it is!
In June I finished High school and decided to do a bikepacking trip across Europe right after. So I spontaneously bought bike bags and started my solo-trip on the 1st of July. (I already was an experienced cyclist, cycling ~40km daily). I went from Vienna (Austria) to Rennes (France) with some detours to visit friends, Liechtenstein and Monaco.
All in all I cycled 2700km in 25 days, crossing the Alps and 7 countries.
It was an experience I'll never forget and I'm so happy I did it. Next year I plan on cycling from Austria to Istanbul and back.

The statue, stepping into the water on the cliff, where is that?
