Camping...and more. 

Tour de Nebraska is primarily a camping tour. We camp near high schools or in city parks with easy access to showers and all night restrooms. However as we grow and expand, we try to meet the needs of our cyclists. Here is an overview of our accommodations.

Tuesday Night Before the Tour

Arriving at our start and end host community on Tuesday night before the tour starts is purely optional! However, complimentary indoor camping and outdoor camping will be provided at the high school or county fairgrounds. You do not have to sign up for this. Plan to arrive after 5 p.m. More information will be included in the TDN app.  

Indoor Camping

We offer an “indoor camping” option at school gyms or other facilities, regardless of the weather. Community shuttles will transfer your bags if necessary.  Some people pack a tent to keep the option to sleep outside. Pack your ear plugs and eye shades!

Motel, B&Bs and Host Homes

We love to visit small Nebraska communities which are quaint, friendly and easy to get around by foot or bicycle. Small communities which offer a small motel or bed and breakfasts for riders who would rather sleep on a nice soft bed at night are a bonus! Once you register, we’re happy to send you a lodging list so you can make your own reservations, which are at your own cost. Community shuttles will provide transportation. In the morning, just stack your bags outside the lobby area for our friendly Penske driver.

Pamper Yourself with Hassle-Free Tent Service

UNL Outdoor Adventures’ Hassle-Free Tent Service allows you more time to enjoy the tour and less time dealing with the “chores” – like setting up your tent, transporting your gear and remembering to bring that much-needed coffee. Each day you arrive at your designated campsite to find your luggage carefully placed inside your tent. Relax in a camp chair and wash the day away with a fresh towel. Enjoy a cup of delicious Cultiva french-pressed coffee before going back on tour.

Tent Service will begin on the afternoon of June 19 and continue until the end of the tour the morning of June 24, 2018! To find out more, please visit: No Hassle Tent Service
