Full description
Experience an authentic e-bike adventure on the frozen lake in St. Moritz, Engadin, a valley in the canton of Grisons in Switzerland.
You will cycle about 20 km on snowy tracks to discover the most beautiful and unspoilt landscapes of this valley where the sun almost always shines.
Cycling on a glacier is a unique and adrenalin-pumping experience. You cannot miss the opportunity to experience the thrill of crossing a sheet of ice!
What we will do
We will meet at 10:00 a.m. in St. Moritz - Dorf. Here we will meet our guide and after the necessary introductions, we will adjust the e-bikes and around 10:30 we will be ready to go.
We will cycle through the Engadin valley, south of the Swiss Alps. This is a very special area, with a lake landscape and rich forests, where the sun shines almost every day of the year.
We will cover about 20 km on snowy tracks and experience the thrill of crossing a frozen lake. The guide will be with us at all times to ensure that the experience takes place in complete safety.
At lunchtime, after all that pedalling, we will be really hungry and can choose to sit on the ice sheet above the lake for an unusual picnic or head to a local restaurant .
After the break, we get back on the saddle to start the return journey. We will return to the same spot where we met in the morning.
The activity lasts a total of about 5½ hours and will end around 15:30.
