ECOTOURISM: Traveling by E-Bike

The electric bike, or e-bike, is the ideal companion for an active and, at the same time, relaxed holiday. The recent boom in e-bike sales has seen its introduction in numerous sectors, in particular the sector of tourism.

Since not everyone feels capable of facing long distances, the pedal assisted bicycle proves to be the perfect choice to tackle different types of terrain with reduced effort.

As a result, the chances of integrating an electric bicycle into your vacation are on the rise, and this growing focus on bicycle touring in Italy (and even more in Europe) is is attracting the interest of more and more people in this innovative form of travel.

Holidays with an electric bicycle, similarly to trips by traditional bike, can be organized in different ways, from simple half-day excursions to long-distance routes with overnight stays.

It is possible to rent electric bikes with the aim of moving through big cities, especially when there are no organized tours in the areas you might be interested in. Make sure the hotel you will be staying in has a secure space to protect your bike from theft.

Another alternative to independent travels are the numerous tours organized by local authorities to promote sustainable tourism. Numerous packages include visits to natural sites or historical centers, with or without a guide.

In short, the travel opportunities are manifold, and will only increase thanks to investments in infrastructure andecotourism. Part of the charm of this way of traveling, as we have seen, is the maximum flexibiliy offered by e-bikes.
