Technical MTB skills

The terrain of the Glacier Bike Tour is varied. Most of it on asphalt and gravel, yet there are (easy) singletrack sections. The technical level, therefore, is low for experienced mountain bikers, yet for classic touring cyclists it might be high. You should be accustomed to mountainous terrain, so you feel comfortable on e.g. steep passages and narrow paths.

Mountain biker type

The Glacier Bike Tour was specially developed for e-bike tourers who want to combine a sporting experience with the enjoyment of nature and culture, the country and its people. The route of 370 km and 9500 vertical meters leads over gravel, asphalt and occasionally narrow paths.
