Starting in Verona, we pointed our bikes north on the EuroVelo 7 cycling route (Sun Route) towards the Dolomites. The inspiration for this trip was the River Drava (Drau) bike path from Toblach in South Tyrol, Italy through Carinthia, Austria and Slovenia to Croatia where it meets the River Danube. After the River Drava, we cycled the Eurovelo 13 route (Iron Curtain Trail) briefly before following the EuroVelo 6 cycling route along the River Danube to Belgrade in Serbia.
