Verbier, Switzerland – 9 March 2021 – Enjoyed by amateurs and professionals alike, the first two editions of the Verbier E-Bike Festival were a huge success. Positive feedback encouraged the organisers, who also run the Freeride World Tour, to line up further dates across Europe. Between escaping into the mountains, spending time with friends and family, and achieving competitive goals, everyone enjoyed themselves on the first two Verbier E-Bike Festivals’ diverse itineraries. The response from riders and media was so overwhelmingly positive that the organisers decided to take the festival further afield. Understanding the value of e-biking as a way of discovering their areas, joining the movement was an easy decision for the renowned sports destinations of Tignes-Val d’Isère (France) and Flachau (Austria) – two-wheeled bliss has no borders.

The E-Bike World Tour 2021 offers:

 - Packages and activities for all levels

 - Three destinations in 2021, provisionally five for 2022
