An eventful, somewhat challenging tour into the pleasure land of the thermal & volcanic country of Styria.

In the thermal & volcanic land of Styria, the four elements - water, fire, earth and air - have found their home. For this reason, these e-bike tours are also dedicated to the four elements.

This tour is dedicated to AIR.

Air stands for mobility and freedom - so it's no wonder that we named one of our tours after this element, as movement in the great outdoors is the main aspect of your adventure. And while you're discovering Thermen- & Vulkanland Steiermark on your e-bike, you'll enjoy the fresh breeze that tastes of green meadows and lush forests. Curiosity is also represented by the element air - and you are very welcome to pursue it while exploring our wonderful region!

With the support of the federal government and the European Union.

Tips when reporting an emergency – Answer these six WH questions: What happened? How many people are injured? Where did the accident happen (are there GPS coordinates)? Who is reporting the incident (callback number)? When did the accident happen? What is the weather like at the site of the incident?

Touring bikes or city bikes are recommended. Tip: A basic equipment of tools and accessories such as spare inner tube and/or repair kit, spanner, air pump, brake and shift cable as well as a screwdriver can never hurt.
