E-Bike Riding in the Kleinwalsertal Valley
Hotel-Operated E-Bike Rental
Are you planning a longer bike tour, or do you want to ride not only in the valley but also up the mountain? To make sure the tour is still manageable, you can rent e-bikes. You can do this either at our hotel or at the e-bike rental shops in Mittelberg or Riezlern. This will give you even more power to explore the Kleinwalsertal. Even if you’re less experienced mountain bikers, you’ll quickly get the hang of e-bikes. Using different settings on the bike, you can adjust how much assistance the motor provides. This makes a mountain climb or a route with significant elevation gain a breeze.
If you don't feel quite confident riding off-road yet, a riding technique course can help. You also have the option of booking guided mountain bike tours in the Kleinwalsertal.

A free bike map is available at the Kleinwalsertal Tourist Office. It features nine routes for riders of varying skill levels and endurance. Even a bike breakdown doesn’t have to put an end to your exciting bike tour. That’s because there are bike service stations at several mountain huts throughout the region. In that case, you could call it a blessing in disguise—after all, there’s nothing quite like a delicious break at a mountain hut with an idyllic mountain panorama.
For anyone who wants to ride their bike right up the mountain and save time climbing, the summer mountain railways in the Kleinwalsertal are here to help. At Heuberg, the Zaferna Lift, and Söllereck, you can easily ride your mountain bike up the mountain and start your tour.
