It’s simple. From May to October we have a bunch of coaches travelling the loops in the direction of the arrows. They pass through each destination every second day and you can hop-off at any stop for as long as you like. You have to stay at least one night at the white stops because our Driver and Guide need to rest there. And you can skip the black dots altogether or stay there for a minimum of 2 nights.
1
Use the timetable and the calendar to work out when the coach departs.
3 The coach leaves orange departure cities on orange days.
2
The coach leaves white departure cities on white calendar days.
4 White dots on the map and timetable represent compulsory overnight stops. (This is as far as the coach will travel in one day.)
5 The black dots are optional overnight stops. Hop-off here for a minimum of 2 nights or continue on to the next compulsory overnight stop.
