MTB Tour Lake Como Mountain Views & Local Cuisine

This trip perfect for e-bikes combines nature and a healthy bike ride with the enjoyment of local mountain food.

Time for a well deserved lunch in a nice & cosy chalet. The way back to the starting point is on easy downhills. (Lunch is optional and not included in the displayed your price.

The proprietor of Como bike Tours, Max, was an awesome guide. I have been working on line with him for approximately two months to arrange a ride for my friend and I. We had two different rides that we did in the lake Como area. The first was a mountain biking ride that exposed us to tremendous views of the lake from a relatively high elevation and took it through a beautiful part of the beech wood forest. We stopped to get a coffee and a sandwich and a very spectacular overlook. It was a wonderful day of riding. Day two was a self-guided road bike ride from Como along the coast of the lake Como across the ferry to Bellagio and back to Como. It was self guided. Max gave us very detailed and specific directions and information that allowed us to make this also a memorable and fascinating ride. I would highly recommend this company for any riding experience. I have used many other companies in the past and these are on par with the best experiences I’ve had. I would also like to make a comment about the shop Run and Bike. The staff there were exceptional. They had our bikes ready well tuned and were very supportive of us.
