Traveling with a motorhome and bicycle

Go on a motorhome holiday by bike


Both are becoming increasingly popular – traveling by motorhome and cycling by bike. Pedelecs and e-bikes in particular have given cycle tourism a big boost. Many camping and cycling fans travel in motorhomes. Transporting bicycles on special rear racks is usually even easier than on the roof of a car. Traveling with a motorhome and bicycle is an ideal combination to relax in nature and discover cycle paths directly from your motorhome. It is also ideal for short trips, relaxed trips to the shops or to the restaurant in the next town if you have bikes with you. This means the motorhome can remain stationary for one or more days. You don't need to dismantle everything for every short tour. With bikes you are mobile on site and can discover the many small sights in the area from your bike. You are also doing something for fitness, well-being and the environment. A motorhome holiday with bikes – that means individual freedom and relaxation.
