Happy New Year 2026

**Happy New Year 2026**

Welcome to Velociped in 2026!

New trips: Switzerland is calling!

2026 will be a year full of discoveries, as we are expanding our range with several fascinating tours through Switzerland.

On the star bike tour around Lucerne, you will follow in the footsteps of William Tell, enjoy the wonderful lake landscape and take a relaxing boat trip across Lake Lucerne.

The Rhone offers two unforgettable travel experiences:
either start in the high alpine Oberwald and cycle leisurely south to Geneva – past orchards, vineyards and impressive landscapes. Or start directly in Geneva and cycle on to Lyon in France, including a detour to the impressive Notre-Dame Abbey.

Lake Geneva also promises pure variety: a journey full of contrasts between elegant city atmosphere, idyllic vineyards and a boat trip to France. In short – a real highlight among the new additions.

And if you want to find out more, simply scroll down and dive into the detailed description. Planning a trip has never been so easy.
