DIFFICULTY GRADES

Our guided motorcycle tours aren't designed for dual-sport or motocross fanatics. We aim to offer trips for people that love to ride with variety in our programming by altering between paved roads and smaller tracks in the heartland.  

FIVE DIFFICULTY LEVELS

We strive to create experiences neither for extremists, nor for off-road specialists, but there will be some for everybody to enjoy. If you are unsure about your riding skills, you should take a one day training for off-roading. This may help less experienced riders since unpaved roads are often part of your trip. Those are the roads that provide most true adventure and sometimes offer spectacular scenery and views that can only be experienced on smaller paths. Difficulty levels depend on daily altitude differences, weather, distances, your experience, and road conditions. We will serve you with a solid mixture of paved and unpaved roads. It is not about getting there fast, it is about the experience itself. We find it important that any and all motorbike adventure riders will enjoy our vacation tours. If all else fails and you still feel uncomfortable about riding a particular stretch on a particular day, you are welcome to tag along in the escort vehicle for that part. At no times do we include extreme moto-cross style riding. As far as difficulty levels go, we divided our tours up into five categories;

Category 1

Easy tours using good, paved roads. We'll avoid higher altitudes and we won't ride through extremely deserted areas. The day tours tend to be short and tailored for hobbyists with not much riding experience.

Category 2

Easy tours using good, paved and unpaved roads. We'll avoid higher altitudes and we won't ride through extremely deserted areas. The day tours tend to be short and tailored less experienced riders.

Category 3

Moderately difficult tours in which we sometimes ride on unpaved roads. The accommodations are partially simple since we'll get further away from the tourist destinations. Our riding hours per day are longer as we cover more difficult routes. These can go over loose sand or over gravel roads. Nevertheless, it is driving on the unpaved roads, which increases the difficulty level. If you have no experience riding on gravel roads, we recommend off-road training for safe handling of the motorcycle on loose surfaces and for your own comfort.

Category 4

Moderately difficult tours with regularly unpaved roads. Various factors, such as altitude, climate, distances and weather determine the level of difficulty of the tour. However, you should be experienced choosing a tour like this. Riding on gravel, loose ground or steep ascents and descents shouldn't be a problem for you. Off-roading experience is necessary so that you can move safely on gravel. If you have no experience riding dual-sports, then you definitely need off-road training before you come with us on a Category 4 trip.

Category 5

Category five tours are definitely demanding tours with sometimes difficult unpaved roads and tracks through sand or mud or stony river crossings. Adventure and pioneering is a welcome challenge for you, which you in no way shy away from. You move safely and confident on unpaved roads. Other factors such as altitude,weather conditions determine the level of difficulty of the tour. Extreme temperatures have to be endured. Off-road experience is absolutely necessary so that you can move safely on gravel. Otherwise, you definitely need quality off-road training.

Pilot motorcycle trips or scouting tours

The exciting fact of pilot trips / scouting tours, is that the itinerary cannot be planned down to the smallest detail. Depending on the weather, road conditions and other factors - often within the time frame - planning, implementation and sometimes improvisation, all are carried out on site. However, in order to partake in one of our pilot motorcycle tours, you should have extensive miles on your clock and have the hunger of a pioneer. Gravel, loose ground, steep ascents and descents and other surprises shouldn't be a problem for you. You should have off-roading or enduro experience and be able to move safely on gravel. Flexibility (and humor) is very important as well.
