There is once again a reason to celebrate at Velociped: Chris is celebrating 10 years with Velociped! Ten years ago, his journey at Velociped began in the reservations department. As an expert for our Main cycling tours, he was always on hand to advise our guests and answer all questions about cycling along the River Main. But his passion has always extended to technology, too. That is why he later moved to our workshop, where today he has become an indispensable part of the team. Chris knows our Velociped bikes down to the smallest detail, takes care of bike planning, maintenance and quality assurance, to ensure you a perfect travel experience. Cycling also plays a big role in Chris’s private life. As an enthusiastic road cyclist, he loves sporty challenges on two wheels – which is exactly why we are taking his anniversary as an opportunity to take a closer look at our sportiest tours.
If you enjoy longer daily stages but prefer to avoid demanding climbs, our major rivers offer ideal conditions. On selected tours along the Rhine, Moselle, Main or Danube, you can expect mostly flat routes with only a few metres of elevation gain, but with daily stages often covering around 70 kilometres or more. Perfect for anyone who wants to stay active, gather plenty of impressions and discover as much of a region as possible in a short time. These tours are especially suited to sporty leisure cyclists who enjoy covering plenty of kilometres while cycling comfortably on well-developed cycle paths.
If you enjoy covering long distances as well as gaining a few metres in elevation, Velociped offers numerous tours with a varied route profile.
Especially ambitious cyclists are often drawn to the mountains – and the Alps are particularly popular. Whether on the Alpe-Adria Cycle Route from Salzburg to Grado, from Munich to Merano or from Lake Constance to Lake Maggiore: anyone combining Germany with Italy can look forward to spectacular landscapes while also gaining quite a few metres in elevation along the way. Things can often become even more challenging along Europe’s coastlines. In Portugal, Croatia or Greece, hilly islands, steep coastal roads and magnificent sea views await. Here, the daily stages are often shorter, but numerous climbs provide a real sporty challenge. The reward? Breathtaking panoramas, crystal-blue water and the feeling that every view has truly been earned. For many guests, an e-bike is the perfect support on these tours.
Our sporty cycling tours are designed for everyone who wants to discover a region in depth while spending a little more time in the saddle. Whether along major rivers, through vineyards and low mountain ranges, or on sunny coastal roads in Europe – those who enjoy active cycling are often rewarded with the most beautiful views.
