Fitness - 2/3
Skills and Technical Ability - 2/3
Riding Style - All Natural 

The riding standard and fitness level required to ride the Tremp E-MTB Tour is intermediate/advanced. You should be happy riding technical rocky terrain for prolonged periods. There are no gaps and jumps but there are exposed ridgelines and technical sections. We leave no one behind and sections can be walked if necessary but please consider your ability before booking this trip. 

Can I book as an individual?

• Yes, but we need a minimum of 5 people to run the tour.

My group is over 7? Can we still come?

• Places are limited to 7 due to van requirements. Groups of 10 -12 can be accommodated if booked far enough in advance to secure extra transport, guides and accommodation.

Can I change the arrival and departure dates?

• The departure and arrival dates are set but arriving a day early in Barcelona to enjoy the city is just fine. Though you can arrive earlier or later in the week it will not decrease the cost and it will not change the tour program.

Can I travel to a different airport?

• Transfers can be arranged from Toulouse airport subject to availability.

What are the options for dinner?

• On the first night of your arrival, we will eat together at a central Ainsa restaurant, where you will meet your guide(s) for the trip and talk about the plan and logistics for riding over a locally brewed beer. Throughout the week there is an array of amazing restaurants in all locations from fine dining to at the hotels to traditional restaurants in the town. Your guides will assist you all the way. 

What are the options for lunch?

• Lunch will be at a variety of spots throughout the trip. In the villages of Ainsa, Tremp and La Pobla itself and around the Valley. A mix of restaurants and cafes with amazing local food from tapas to speciality menus and dishes. lunches are included

I have a dietary requirement or choice?

• Vegetarians or pescetarians are no problem, though please advise us on booking. Please contact us before booking if you are a vegan or have a medical dietary necessity to ensure your needs can be met.

How many trails will we ride each day?

• Depending on the length of the trails and how long it takes to get to them between 6 and 10 roughly.

How hard are the trails we will be riding?

• All of the trails present their challenges, there is a lot of technical riding, and rocks, and exposure are common. If you are very comfortable riding technical red runs in your local bike park you should be ok. 

Is there any pushing or pedalling?

• Yes, dependent on the day. For example, in Ainsa you may need to pedal some short uphill sections. In Tremp and La Pobla more so because we do not use the van as much. But we have the e-bikes and this has all been considered. 

Recommended bike?

• We would recommend an E-mtb enduro bike for this tour. If you bring your own bike It should be well-maintained and modern so that parts can be sourced if they break. We suggest a minimum of 150mm/140mm travel and DH casing tyres setup tubeless.

What equipment should I bring?

• Your bike and kit should be well prepared for long enduro rides away from bike shop support. You'll need to carry a pack with you at all times with hydration, a tube, pump, tyre levers and at least a basic multi-tool. Sun cream is essential. 
• You should bring an open-face helmet, a full face as well if you have the room, a hydration pack and the protective equipment you would feel comfortable wearing.

What is the average cost of a beer? An evening out?

• A pint of Spanish Lager will set you back between €4 and €5 depending on where and when you buy it. Dinner in a decent restaurant will cost you around €12 -  €20 per main course.

Will I need insurance?

• Absolutely. With the UK's departure from the EU your EH111 card no longer covers medical care. You'll also want insurance against other circumstances such as bike theft, damage or cancellation for personal reasons. We recommend Yellow Jersey. Booking with us gets you a discount code for a 15% off.

You are required as part of your booking to have personal injury insurance and we also recommend cancellation insurance.

This tour can be operated as a non E-MTB tour with analogue bikes. Expect between 500-1000m of climbing per day.

We can include one day on the E-MTB's to take the sting out of the tour, but if you are fit and love to pedal it is an exceptional tour on analogue bikes.
