Why go
About Bebike Lake Como
Bebike offers boutique e-bike rentals and guided tours on Lake Como. The team chose e-bikes because they make this hilly landscape accessible to nearly everyone, climbing the back roads without strain and reaching viewpoints that are hard to find otherwise.
Rides explore villages, old railway lines, mountain valleys and small churches above the shore, with local stories along the way. Luigi, a certified mountain bike guide and travel writer, and Emily run the business from the hamlet of Cardano.
Main services
What Bebike Lake Como offers
Services from the official website.
Tailor-made tours
Private rides, special occasions, team building or multi-day plans combining cycling and walking. Bebike designs the itinerary around what you want, whether a celebration or a ride round the tip of the lake.
E-bike rental
Cube Reaction PRO e-bikes with a Bosch motor, rear rack and lights, suited to tarred roads and easy gravel paths. Choose a half-day or full-day rental, collected at the office on the cycle path.
Rides on the old railway cycle path
The office sits on the former railway line between Menaggio and Porlezza, a gentle path of about 16 km that ends on the beach of Lake Lugano. Good for a relaxed first ride.
