This section starts in Vilnius, with its Baroque Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and heads west towards Poland. Riders will spin across the forests of Southern Lithuania, possibly stopping for a dip in a Soviet-era spa. Crossing into Poland the tour will camp along some of the country’s most beautiful lakes before heading south to the capital of Warsaw. Finally, the last few days bring you to Krakow, the only major city in the country to avoid damage during WWII and thus, an amazing repository of monasteries, palaces and churches.
