Surface and terrain

This guided e-bike and boat tour is rated easy to moderate, with daily biking distances of 18-28 miles (20-45 km). You can alter the easiness/difficulty of your rides each day depending on how you utilize your electric bike settings!

The terrain is mountainous and hilly with some long (and steep) climbs, reaching an altitude of 400-700 meters at times. You don't have to worry about time - participants can take as long as they need on the climbs, and your e-bike will make much lighter work of any slopes.

If you choose to use a gravel bike, you will find the tour moderate-difficult and need to have a high level of fitness, ideally acquired by daily biking, to keep up with the e-bike group and manage the climbs.

Participants will hear from their guide ahead of each day what the route section will involve. You always have the choice to skip a biking day to spend leisure time sunbathing on the boat.

The tour takes place on mostly asphalted roads with light traffic.
