Innsbruck e-bike tour into the mountains

Rated 5 out of 5 by 17 GetYourGuide reviewers

A relaxed half day that gets you out of the city and up into the forest above it, with the motor doing the hard work. Small groups of up to five and a guide who knows the history. Budget €50 a head for the e-bike, paid on the day.

Starts inInnsbruck city centreAll year

Your guide waits with the e-bikes at the front door of the Markthalle on Marktplatz, by the Inn. Each bike is set to your height, and you get a short lesson in using the motor before you set off.

The first stretch follows the river, then the route climbs about 400 metres into the hills. The electric assist makes the climb comfortable even if you have not ridden for years. You stop at a viewpoint looking out over the city and the mountains.

From there you ride along forest roads through farmland and woods to the ruin of a 13th-century castle with views down the valley. The next stop is a medieval old town about 10 km from Innsbruck, which the listing does not name but which fits Hall in Tirol, for a coffee or an ice cream and a wander through the cobbled lanes.

The ride back follows the Inn to the Markthalle. Allow four hours. Many people come away with ideas for walks and rides for the rest of their stay.

In winter

The route uses forest roads above the city, so winter tours depend on snow and ice; check the calendar for dates the operator offers. Wear warm layers and gloves.

In summer

The best time for this ride: long days, open forest roads and an ice cream in the old town. Morning starts avoid the midday heat on the climb.
