Being cleverly prepared …cycle happy!

Packing list - perfectly prepared for the Cycling Region Glückstadt

Preparation is everything! That’s why we have put together a packing list to help you prepare for your bike tour on the Happy Routes. The more detailed list is for those cycling enthusiasts who basically only get off their bikes to sleep. The short version is for those cyclists who want to explore our region on cycling day trips.

Both packing lists are for convenience only – you decide, of course, whether you can do without certain items on the list or whether there is anything else you want to take with you. You can of course also download both packing lists to take with you, tick off items and basically think a bit more about what you might need. Have fun preparing for your tour – as the saying goes: anticipation is half the fun!
