The average altitude of the Alps is 1,700 meters (5,576 feet). The Alps determine climate and vegetation and provide a continental basin. The Alps made a significant contribution to Switzerland's identity, but economic activity is concentrated mainly on the plateau. The mountainous region with few population is covered with two thirds of the country 's mountain, ice, rock, forest, and alpine meadow. 11% of the population live in the mountains. Urbanized landscape Crossing the plateau from Lake Geneva to Lake Constance will never pass through areas where people live.
Austria located in the Alps is a mountainous area. The Middle East Alps, the Northern Limestone Alps and the South Limestone Alps are all located in Austria. About 84% of Austria's total area (84,000 square kilometers or 32,433 square miles) can be thought of as low in the lowland, and only 32% of the country is below 500 meters (1,640 feet). The western Austrian Alps head toward lowlands and plains in the eastern part of the country. It can be divided into 5 areas, the largest in the Eastern Alps, accounting for 62% of the total area of the country. The Austrian hills of the Alps and Carpathian mountains account for about 12% of the total area, the eastern hills and Panoni lowlands account for about 12% of the total area. The second largest mountain (far below the Alps) is located in the north
Denars Alps in the southeastern part of the eastern Alps extends 650 km along the coast of the Adriatic Sea (northeast - southeast), extends northward from the Julian Alps in the northwest to the Šar-Korab block. According to the Free University of Berlin (FreieUniversität Berlin), this mountainous area is classified as Central Europe and Southern Europe. Sometimes the term "Central Europe" refers to the Danube region geographically defined as the center of the African continent, including the language and culture areas currently included in Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Serbia. Slovakia, Slovenia and usually Austria and Germany, but Russia and other former Soviet Union countries have never been moved to the Ural Mountains
After the Alps came to the Pyrenees mountains. The Pyrenees mountains are not as high as the Alps, but the beauty and beauty are varied. A more rounded, environmentally friendly peak is not as busy as the Alps. I am planning to ride a bike in Spain and Andorra, but when I look at the map, I understand that the choice of ride between France and Spain is not that big. It did not provide a cycle-friendly path. I will generally say that I prefer the Alps because the area is not necessarily wise because it is bigger and they have higher peaks. I do not explore all the Pyrenees mountains, but I like to stay in the Alps. Cycling in the Pyrenees mountains and cycling to the Atlantic coast is the first stage of the tour.
