From mountains to sea
This tour is for active bikers. For those bikers who are willing to explore something new and with preserved nature out of the city life, but still in Europe. Here comes the real new land, “terra incognita” for the biker soul. A landscape full of isolated mountains, seemingly fallen from another time. Biking through Kosova and Albania’s mountains -probably one of the last adventures of Europe. Thats impressive hospitality, archaic villages and mountainous land of strong beauty, without cable cars, asphalt roads or holiday resorts. Instead shepherds and their flock, friendly encounters in no man’s land, and the feeling of true pioneering. On single tracks (approx. 50%) and wild gravel roads we
re on tour in alpine and semialpine areas up to 7200ft, biking through remote valleys and past mysterious hamlets. During a whole week, from Kosova to Albania, until we finally reach the Adriatic sea. From mountains to sea – that’s a story to tell back home!

- Min. 50% single tracks, from alpine terrain on 7000ft down to the sea
- Small, safe & beautiful, max. 8x guests in a group
