Explore the Chaîne des Puys and the area around the Puy de Dôme

Around Clermont-Ferrand, the routes wind through diverse landscapes—forest tracks, volcanic paths, and varied terrain—offering stunning viewpoints across the region. Depending on the option you select, trips can depart from Clermont-Ferrand or from a meeting point in the heart of the volcanic landscape, such as near Orcines. The Chaîne des Puys—a UNESCO World Heritage site, along with the Limagne Fault—provides a remarkable setting for a cycling excursion.

If you would like to explore local trails with the benefit of a guide, opt for an accompanied outing. Tom, who has an expert knowledge of the region’s trails, leads some of these guided trips. He will help you make the most of the terrain and tailor your pace to the chosen route. Options range from accessible, leisurely rides to more challenging, sporty enduro-style excursions.

FAQ

Do you need to be athletic to ride an electric mountain bike?

Not necessarily for an accessible, casual ride; however, electric assistance does not eliminate the need for physical effort. Enduro-style rides require a higher level of physical fitness and a solid command of the bike. Be sure to check the required fitness level on the product page before booking.

How long does a guided electric mountain bike (e-MTB) excursion last?

The available options include two-hour rides and rides lasting approximately three hours, depending on the route. You should set aside half a day for these experiences, as this includes the welcome session and bike preparation. Please check the exact duration on the product page.

Can we organize an electric mountain bike outing for a bachelorette party, a bachelorette party or a seminar?

Yes, an electric mountain bike outing can be an interesting activity for a group of friends or a company. The choice between independent rental and guided outing depends on the level of the group, the number of people and availability. Contact Takamaka to create a formula adapted to your event.
