Activity Level: 1-3
Our Dolce Tempo e-biking activities allow you to leisurely explore local hidden gems and to get away from the crowds, experiencing the essence of your location on your own terms and at your own pace. Easier than our other trips, but still wonderfully active, route options typically include 2-4 hours of e-biking per day. Our custom electric-assist bikes allow you to pedal effortlessly. Your trip is fully supported with dedicated Trip Leaders, vans, meticulously selected routes and downloadable GPS files available for use on your own device.
Route notes
The e-biking terrain on this trip includes rolling paved routes with a few short sections of busier roads. Our e-bikes offer a boost for some steeper inclines as we ride over mountain passes, and the nature of the landscape in this region means there are also a few longer descents.
