Biking

Mountain Biking and e-biking are booming, and most places in the world have bike trails, cycle paths, downhill parks or established routes to bike. Sometimes the greatest challenge is deciding which tracks and trails to bike, as there is such a variety to choose from. Incredible cross country and downhill mountain bike locations exist in Whistler – Canada, Utah and Colorado – USA, The Alps – France, Queenstown and Rotorua – New Zealand, Finale Ligure and Lake Garda – Italy, the Eastern Cape – South Africa, and numerous locations across Australia.

Cycle touring (while travelling through a country or across a key route) is a refreshing way to see a country. You can stay in hotels or hostels along the way, or choose to carry all your supplies and camp out in designated campgrounds. How about crossing the European Alps, travelling to the Himalayan outpost of Leh, cycling from Saint Petersburg to Istanbul, traversing Vietnam, discovering Patagonia, experiencing the Munda Biddi trail in Australia, crossing the Gyatso La Pass from Lhasa to Nepal, or linking the Pacific and Caribbean via the La Ruta de los Conquistadores in Costa Rica.

Two great things about biking are that it's a super social activity that can be shared with friends or family, and it’s also very environmentally friendly. You do all the work and get out of the experience as much as you put into cranking the pedals. There are well established mountain bike communities in key destination locations too which makes getting to know the locals really easy. Why not plan your next adventure on a bike and enjoy the ride!
