St Petersburg Harley Days
The St. Petersburg Harley Days 2014/15 were very successful, visitors from all over Europe made their way to St. Petersburg.
The journey took place either by land or by ferry via Helsinki. Despite the tense situation, it was a successful event that will certainly become events A great city and very friendly people welcome you to the UNESCO city. St. Petersburg is the northernmost metropolis with millions and has five million inhabitants, an exuberant cultural offering awaits you in the city, everything is fully integrated into the event. The tour to St. Petersburg is definitely worth it, of course you should drive a lot, the northern route via Helsinki is interesting and anyone who has breathed in the Nordic air and felt it as a wind in their face will want to come back again and again.
A big parade leads through the city, past the castles and monuments, taking you back to the old days. And the locals join in, standing on the streets everywhere and waving to the bikers. You get the impression that the women have made a special statement, they are modern, or in cultural garb they are a special feast for the eyes.

2016 to the Harley meeting in St. Petersburg
In 2016 there is also the opportunity to take part in a motorcycle trip to the Saint Petersburg Harley Days, which will take place from August 11th to 14th, 2016 . With our cooperation partner Silja Line , the route in 2016 will go from Kiel with the Stena Line via Gothenburg and then overland to Stockholm.
Harley is the main focus on this route ; it is approx. 470 km from Gothenburg to Stockholm. The ferry arrives in Gothenburg at 9:15 a.m. and at 5:00 p.m. the Silja Line leaves Stockholm for Helsinki. The route should be manageable in a good 6 hours, it would also be possible to spend a night in Stockholm , but this is only possible in a group and by prior arrangement.
In Stockholm we board the modern Silja Line ships and can enjoy the comfortable cruise to Helsinki .
After a beautiful journey across the sea, we head from Helsinki to Saint Petersburg . The tour can be completed in one day, it is approx. 400 kilometers.
At the border crossing into Russia you will have to spend around an hour.
Another tour option is to take the ferry from Travemünde to Helsinki and then drive to St. Petersburg together with the others. Both tours are interesting and have the same goal! The St. Petersburg Harley Days…
There are only a few places left!
