THE ULTIMATE
BERLIN, GERMANY
Best known to cyclists, the Berlin Wall Trail (pictured right) follows the course of the wall that divided West Berlin from East Germany from 1961 until it was famously breached in 1989. It was transformed into a walking and cycling path, and opened in 2006. The trail is signposted and has information boards detailing the 28-year lifespan of the wall, and memorials to those who tried to escape. berlin.de
