Frequently asked questions

The difficulty level is medium: as an onroad motorcycle tour, the route runs on well-paved but sometimes narrow country roads with many curves and tight hairpins. Not suitable for beginners, returning riders or chopper riders.

You ride your own motorcycle. A support vehicle for luggage is not part of this tour, so we recommend packing light for the stages through Slovenia, Friuli and Austria.
