Allmost • All-Mountain Slow Tour

E-bike Tour at Lake Garda and Monte Baldo with MTB Guide

Hi, I’m Francesco, founder, and mountain bike guide of Allmost; I organize guided e-bike tours to Lake Garda, Monte Baldo, and the Brenta Dolomites.

Allmost is an acronym that stands for All-Mountain Slow Tour.

All-Mountain because I offer guided e-bike tours suitable for everyone and include ascents and descents on asphalted roads and accessible forest roads to more challenging single trails.

Slow Tour because I favor safety, calmness, and fun to enjoy fulfilling experiences together.

Who I am

I was born in Verona under the sign of Scorpio at the dawn of the fabulous 1960s; that’s why I am an optimist who loves to live by exploring myself and the land with a mountain bike. 

For over 20 years, I have been riding the trails of Lake Garda and Monte Baldo out of pure passion and spirit of exploration, and since 2017 I have been a certified MTB Guide at the National Mountainbike Academy.

No hurry, no challenges beyond your capabilities during my guided tours; we will immerse ourselves like the mountains, facing the trails and the law of gravity with the respect they deserve to pace ourselves and return home with the highest possible sense of fulfillment!

In my rucksack, a camera is always ready to find the best photo of the Garda landscape.

Which routes and where

Mount Baldo and the hinterland of Lake Garda are still little known and deserve to be explored on an e-bike with a local guide. There are routes to suit your needs and abilities, from the shores of Lake Garda to the hills with olive groves and small villages, and the 1800 meters of the Baldo mountains. The important thing is to feel good and to return home with the memory of a beautiful day spent together.

I organize and design ring tours for all levels: for those curious to try an e-bike and those who already know how to ride and are looking for adrenaline, adventure, and exploration amidst the nature of the lake and mountains. From half a day to several days, every day, all year round.

The tours are always private: I only form groups with people you know to ensure the right riding level, rewarding tours, and fun days.

The map is not the territory!

You can find dozens of GPS tracks on the Internet that you can download to ride on your own with a mountain bike, but it could ruin your day if you find out on the way there that the person who mapped out the route has described as an easy tour one that is in fact very difficult for you. 

On the other hand, a local guide knows the terrain inside out and can adapt the route to your level and with the right bike for the terrain and trail.

Each discipline requires its bike

I offer All-Mountain tours, a discipline that demands a twin-axle mountain bike suitable for trail climbs and technical descents. I have chosen a top-of-the-range product for you: the Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 E-MTB. 

I will personally take care of the maintenance of the E-MTBs to ensure maximum efficiency. The tour starts with a small briefing explaining how to use the e-bike with a customized setup for each participant: experience has taught me that every rider is different and that there is no standard for riding an MTB.
