A good mix of trails, fun and tasty local cheese and wine. On May, 27-28 more than 500 e-mtb riders gathered together for a weekend of races and ebike tours on the trails of Valtellina (North of Italy).

The big highlight of 2023 was the E-Enduro Race, a two days competition with a total of 7 stages, 65.8 kilometres and 3100 meters of vertical. More than 150 athletes from Italy, French and Germany competed on the trails of the Orobie Alps, designed and prepared by 360 Valtellina Bike, a local association of passionate volunteers.

Lots of riders followed the pioneer of mountain biking Hans Rey (special guest of the event) on the Trail Experience, a non-competitive e-enduro tour with an amazing stop for a bbq and wine tasting in the forest.

The bigger initiative was the Festival Ride, a 40 km all-mountain tour where almost 200 e-mtb passionate rode together between wine yards, ancient villages and spectacular views all over the valley and on the north side of Como Lake.

The heart of the festival was the eBike Village located in the historical downtown of Morbegno: an exhibition village with exhibition area, bmx freestyle and street food. The main sponsor of the event is Met Helmets, which right here has its headquarters.
