Motorcycle Tours Europe – Alpine Passes, Coasts & Balkan Trails
Europe packs more riding into a short distance than any other continent: tight switchbacks over the Western Alps, Croatia's Adriatic coast, lonely gravel roads through the Dinaric mountains and Norway's fjord roads. Whether a paved pass tour on an adventure bike or a multi-day off-road trip in the Balkans – at Overcross you'll find guided trips with local guides as well as self-guided tours for anyone who prefers their own pace.

Best Time to Ride in Europe
Europe rides almost year-round – the region is what matters. While the high Alpine passes only clear of snow in summer, the south invites you to ride from early spring into autumn.

Europe rides almost year-round – the region is what matters. The high Alpine passes only clear of snow from June and stay open until September. The south – Iberian Peninsula, Adriatic and Greece – invites riding from early spring into autumn and is often very hot at the height of summer. Scandinavia and Iceland have a short, intense window in high summer with long, bright days.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Guided and self-guided tours through more than 20 countries – from Alpine passes in France and Italy to the Iberian Peninsula and the Adriatic, on to the Balkans, Scandinavia and Iceland.
Short enduro tours and weekend trips start from around €581. Multi-day Alpine, Balkan or Northern Europe trips run higher – depending on length, region and what's included.
Within the EU an ID card is enough. For countries like Bosnia-Herzegovina, Albania or Montenegro, pack your passport, vehicle registration and the Green Insurance Card.
Guided trips take planning, navigation and border formalities off your hands. Self-guided tours with a roadbook or GPS track give you the same route at your own pace.
For Alpine passes and coastal tours any touring motorcycle will do. For the gravel trails in the Balkans or northern Spain, a light adventure bike with knobby tyres is the better choice.
The Alps ride best from June to September, the south from spring into autumn, Scandinavia and Iceland in high summer. So you'll find a suitable region almost year-round.
