Easy Going

e-Mountain Bikes

Almost as good as flying

Experiencing the mountains while cycling – for a long time, this was only a good combination for the well-trained amongst us. Thanks to the e-bike, all that has changed now – it is now easier to scale greater heights and cycle through the countryside, such as on a nippy tour from Lake Constance to Piz Buin.

Special Tipp:

HINT: E-Bike tour from Lake Constance to Piz Buin

The 100km tour from Bregenz (400m) to Gaschurn in the Montafon (980m) takes participants all over Vorarlberg. Those in a more leisurely vein can opt for some sightseeing and an overnight, or take shortcuts by railway, while ambitious cyclists can extend the tour and wind their way up the Silvretta high-alpine road to Bielerhöhe heights at 2,000m and the Wiesbadner lodge at the foot of Piz Buin, the highest summit in Vorarlberg.
