Important information: Except for our "Without Bike 4 hours" the use of a bicycle is mandatory for our workshops. Therefore, you MUST have a bike that is in good working condition. If your bike or e-bike is not in at least reasonable working condition or if you do not have a bicycle available at all, you can book a rental bike or rental e-bike from Swisstourer. We advise people that these workshops are for bicycle touring, and basic skills such as changing gears are required.
