Details

High Point and Winston-Salem, North Carolina, lie within the diverse landscapes of the Piedmont Triad region—a mix of urban energy, historic neighborhoods, and inviting greenways. Triad ECO Adventures is transforming how visitors and locals navigate this area by offering electric bike (eBike), Segway, and stand-up paddleboard (SUP) experiences that highlight the best of these cities’ outdoor assets. Their tours deliver an active, on-the-move perspective of High Point, Winston-Salem, and nearby Guilford County by blending urban cultural highlights with nature-focused trails.

From the bustling downtown loops to the quieter Greenways lined with oaks and maples, guests encounter a balance of architecture, waterways, public parks, and small-community charm. The eBike tours range from brisk 1.75-hour spins through downtown Winston-Salem to immersive 4-hour journeys that navigate multiple city districts and trails, allowing riders to cover more ground efficiently and enjoyably. Complementing the eBikes are Segway tours—with options like the Mystery & Mayhem specialty ride or the Washington Park/UNCSA route—bringing effortless gliding through city streets and paths dotted with public art installations and historic landmarks.

Triad ECO Adventures stands out as a local leader in low-impact recreation, letting visitors engage with the outdoors without the intense exertion traditional hiking demands. Their SUP rentals on nearby lakes add another dimension, inviting paddlers to connect with water environments—rare within an urban setting. Specialty tours, such as comedy-themed trolley rides or single meetups on Segways, bring a social, lighthearted angle to the active outings.

This company has carved a niche by combining innovative equipment rental, guided tours, and a strong sense of place within North Carolina’s Triad region. Whether you’re drawn to civic routes or green trails, Triad ECO Adventures provides a fresh way to encounter local landscapes, history, and community—all propelled by quiet electric power.

Adventure Tips

Charge Your eBike Battery Fully

Ensure your eBike is fully charged before any tour to avoid interruptions, especially on longer routes like the 4-hour Winston-Salem loop.

Wear Closed-Toe Shoes

Bring a Water Bottle

Hydration is key during sunny summer hours or when tackling longer electric bike tours along the Greenway.
