Tour die Kapellen

The Tour die Kapellen (Tour of the Chapels) was organized in 2019 as a joint venture between rural communities in the Ellis County area along with members of the Hays Symphony and Hays Convention and Visitors Bureau. Through the efforts of volunteers from Hays Area Bicyclists, Catherine, Victoria, Pfeifer, Munjor and the Fort Hays State Music Department, the event has become a popular, uniquely supported, organized cycling ride, with distances from 15 to 100 miles, including a 54 mile mixed surface ride. The event celebrates the Volga-German heritage in the Ellis County area, as riders visit historic limestone churches, experience the ethnic culture, and listen to professional musicians at each venue – all through a commute on cycle. The solitude of the open, rural terrain is an added bonus for anyone hoping to escape a hectic, daily routine. The small town, Midwest friendliness is unforgettable to all visiting Ellis County. An optional Bus Tour is available for non-cyclists traveling to Hays.
