4–5 hours.
Suitable for riders with good cardiovascular fitness and prior e‑bike experience; expect sustained climbing and technical descents.
Yes—basic familiarity with throttle/assist modes and confident braking on descents is recommended given the elevation and speed on forest roads.
Entrance to the Eagle’s Nest is included with the tour as noted; use of the historic elevator or the short walk to the building is part of the visit.
This route is designed for e‑bikes due to the sustained climbs and distance; participants are asked to book an e‑bike in advance.
The ride covers ~15.5 miles and about 4,000 ft of ascent—challenging but manageable with an e‑bike if you have moderate-to-good fitness and are comfortable on descents.
