Challenging Bike Tours in Europe

Self-guided European Bike Tours

Looking for a cycling challenge? These tours are on the tougher side, but as always, with greater challenges come greater rewards. We have created these cycling trips to really push you, with longer days, some tough hills and some off-road sections where you will have a bumpier ride, but they open up areas of Europe that are a must-see. With deeply beautiful scenery and little villages, that glass of local wine after a tough day on the bike will taste as the more delicious. If you want to take the edge off a little, there is always the e-bike option to give those legs the occasional rest.

9-day Cornwall Cycling Holiday

Stunning & sunny Cornish coastline of beaches, coves and cliffs
St. Ives, a town of art, Cornish ice creams and fish‘n'chips
Famous surfing beaches and the windswept grassy cliffs around Godrevy Point

There's no escaping the fact that this is a cycling tour packed with hills. Many are steep, some are long and winding, some will take you by surprise and others will tease you from a distance. They make this a ride best suited for intermediate-to-advanced cyclists, or those who opt for an e-bike. Each day varies in elevation, length and gradient which keeps things interesting. While you’ll be spending a large amount of time on your bike, you’ll still have plenty of time to stop and take in the picture-perfect surroundings.
