New formula

This trip around Lake Garda is exclusively by electric bike (e-bike) to ensure a comfortable and consistent pace for the whole group in this hilly region of northern Italy. The group must wait for and follow each other. E-bikes are provided and rented on site for all participants, allowing for a simplified departure and an optimal group experience on local roads. It is not possible to participate with your own bike, electric or regular. Thanks to e-bikes, each ride becomes an accessible pleasure, where you can fully enjoy the spectacular landscapes of Lake Garda, without logistical concerns or excessive physical exertion.

Between mountains and Italian charm

The charm of northern Italy reveals itself with every pedal stroke along the sunny shores of Lake Garda. This e-bike tour immerses you in a picture-postcard setting: medieval villages, rolling vineyards, fragrant olive groves, and turquoise waters sparkling at the foot of the Alps. From Peschiera to Torbole, you'll cycle along scenic trails beside the Mincio and Adige rivers, discover Verona—the city of Romeo and Juliet—and savor the pleasures of la dolce vita during gourmet stops at wineries and family-run inns.

Thanks to e-bikes, every day becomes a ride filled with freedom and pleasure. From Monte Baldo to Lake Tenno, from the narrow streets of Malcesine to the peaceful shores of Sirmione, this journey combines culture, gastronomy, and magnificent landscapes. A gentle and inspiring itinerary, perfect for sampling the beauty of northern Italy.
