Best E-Mountain Bike rides in Europe

We showcase our e-mountain bike adventures in Europe.

Putting the spotlight on our European E-mountain bike Destinations

After more than ten years of crafting mountain bike adventures around the world we were delighted to introduce new e-mountain bike trips at the end of 2019. Rather than simply re-purposing our existing mountain bike tours we set out to create all new itineraries perfectly suited to the unique characteristics and benefits of e-mountain bikes.

We currently have five tremendous E-MTB tours in Europe. From the rocky coastline of Croatia, to the dusty Sierra Nevada singletrack in Spain, and the rugged Swiss Alps to the rolling forests of Slovenia.

Here’s the lowdown on our European e-mountain bike adventures and what makes each special:

Tuscany – ride the good life

This spectacular week-long E-MTB tour unlocks the best of Tuscany as you ride on coastal and island singletrack.

If you’re looking for a real foodie e-mountain bike adventure, with outstanding singletrack and a private pool to return to at the end of the day, it has to be Tuscany. Here are a few special moments you can look forward to:

Slovenia – From the Alps to the Adriatic

You don’t have to travel far to find our next European E-MTB destination, in fact it’s just across the border in Slovenia. Although they might be neighbours the countries and terrain vary vastly with the tours following suit.

Slovenia is the most densely forested country in Europe which, combined with its big mountains and rolling hills, makes it one hell of an E-MTB playground. Still not convinced? Keep scrolling…
