Offroad Routes UK to Turkey on XR400s. Routes, Maps, Ideas - Any Help Welcome!
Hi,
My friend and I are planning to ride our XR400s from Scotland to Istanbul and then on to Eastern Turkey at the end of the summer. We want to do as much as possible offroad but we anticipate that this might be quite difficult (Farmers, fences, police etc). We are getting the ferry direct from Edinburgh to Zeebrugge in Belgium. After that there is no particular plan. Does anyone have any ideas about possible routes accross Europe with as much off tarmac as possible? Keen to do anything from wide fast trails to tight technical paths. We are going packed light and wild camping all the time anyway so that is not a problem. Cheers in advance for any help and suggestions!! Andy ![]() |

All the trails available are mostly footpaths. Bikes destroy footpaths. The destruction in France for example is immense.

Sad that there are not a few recognised offroad routes in europe like there are in the U.S. I guess europe is just too crowded or something. So where do all those crazy BMW 'dual sport' riders do all their offroading in europe?! Haha sorry I had to have a dig...
Still going tosee what I can find in the way off offroad. Don't worry we will avoid french footpaths. |
