Motorcycle Pillion Tour into the Alps from Lake Como
Lake Como, Italy
About This Activity
Strap on a helmet and hop on the back of a BMW GS or similar touring motorcycle as your licensed guide takes you through the hairpin passes above Lake Como and up into the Lariano Triangle mountains. The route passes through chestnut forests and stone villages, stopping for coffee at an Alpine rifugio and a swim at a mountain lake. The guide keeps the group small (4-6 riders) and tailors the pace to the weather and rider comfort. A full-day tour costs approximately €400-450 per person including guide, bike hire, fuel, and lunch.
Seasonal note: Mountain passes may be closed in early spring and late autumn by snow
