The Berlin-Copenhagen Cycle Route (German: Radfernweg Berlin-Kopenhagen) is a 630-km cycle route that connects the German and Danish capital cities. The German portion of the route, between Berlin and Rostock, is approximately 370 kilometers; the Danish portion, between Gedser and Copenhagen, is approximately 260 kilometers. Between Rostock and Gedser, cyclists must take a ferry.
The route is paved for the majority of its length, sometimes running on a road for automobiles, but most of the time its own path, which may or may not run parallel to an auto road. A very few stretches of the route, for example between Neustrelitz and Waren, are not paved but perfectly acceptable to ride over with an average road or hybrid bicycle. Under certain weather conditions these unpaved roads might require special attention while riding over. Distinctive signs mark the route at most junctions but acquiring a route map to keep on the journey or a GPS navigation device loaded with the route (available through the official site) is recommended.

Famous quotes containing the words cycle and/or route:
“The lifelong process of caregiving, is the ultimate link between caregivers of all ages. You and I are not just in a phase we will outgrow. This is life—birth, death, and everything in between.... The care continuum is the cycle of life turning full circle in each of our lives. And what we learn when we spoon-feed our babies will echo in our ears as we feed our parents. The point is not to be done. The point is to be ready to do again.”
—Paula C. Lowe (20th century)
“But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
