Ecotopia Biketour: Pedaling Towards Ecological and Social Sustainability

Ecotopia pedaling for sustainability.

For over three decades, they have been more than just a cycling tour; it’s a movement. Founded in 1990, this self-organized, international community has been cycling across different regions of Europe, visiting environmental and social projects, and practicing forms of activism and sustainable living.

Who Can Join Ecotopia Biketour?

They are open to anyone interested in traveling by bike, community life, DIY, an ecological lifestyle, and learning by experience. The tour aims to be as inclusive as possible, accommodating cyclists of any level of fitness or experience with bike touring.

What to Expect?

Participants can expect to cover a distance of 30–70 km per day, depending on the terrain. The tour focuses on communal vegan food, consensus decision-making, and skill-sharing workshops. One of the core values is to create a non-discriminatory environment.
