German places of interest?

I am planning to cycle to Neuschwanstein next year and I would be very great full if someone will give me some information regarding the terrain . I'll be going there on treck alpha.

It depends which direction you'll be approaching it from. It's on the edge of the Alps proper, but the terrain north of it is relatively lumpy as the land rises from the Danube basin. The most obvious approach is south from the Danube via the Lech valley (part of the Romantic Road and Via Claudia Augusta cycle routes from Augsburg). I sort of sidled across from Lindau on Lake Constance, which was very hilly (and I took the train part way). Once you're there, there's some nice cycling on the Austrian side of the border around the lakes and valleys near Reutte. Are you planning on cycling all the way from the UK or from a closer starting point?

for now I'm planning to cycle from uk it will be depended on how many days of holiday I will decide to take for the trip.
The Via Claudia Augusta looks very interesting thanks for tips.

I've cycled on the Bodensee Koenigsee radweg, which (though I don't know for sure), I imagine will be similar terrain. It's rough in places, though deep pine forest, with gravel surface for a lot of the way rather than tarmac. I was on a 700c tourer with thin tyres, and though in places had to get off and push, mostly it was manageable. Depending how you choose your route, you might find yourself using the Iser radweg (from Munich to the Bodensee/Koenigsee Radweg). It's a lot easier, seeing as the ground is pretty flat. It can be confusing in places, though, so watch out for the little green bike signs at the junctions to ensure you're still following the correct route. Enjoy, it's a glorious part of the world.
