E-bike wine tour from Brno: 40km through Moravian vineyards

Czech white wines rank globally, and you taste five of them after riding through the hills that grow them.

A private e-bike and wine activity from Brno that covers 40 kilometers through the Palava wine region in a single day. You ride a high-end electric bike fitted to your size, stop for lunch at a hilltop goat farm, and finish at Sonberk winery with five tastings of Chardonnay, Riesling, Tramin, Palava and Pinot Gris. The guide is English-speaking and hotel pickup is included. A 45-minute drive south takes you to Velke Pavlovice, where the riding begins.

The experience

If you have a free afternoon and want to understand why Southern Moravia is called Moravian Tuscany, this is the shape of the day: a 45-minute drive south from Brno lands you in Velke Pavlovice, a town in the heart of the Palava Natural Park wine region. You get fitted to a high-end 29-inch e-bike (the kind that costs 2,700 euros new), and set off on a 40-kilometer loop through endless rolling hills dotted with vineyards. The e-motor handles the climbs. You handle the scenery.

Midday you stop at a goat farm perched on a hillside with views across the vineyards (lunch is on your own expense, but the setting makes it worth the detour). After a break, you climb the last few hills to Sonberk winery, one of the top-rated makers in the country. A local winemaker walks you through the vineyard and explains what makes Czech white wines distinctive: why Chardonnay and Riesling from here rank in international competitions but rarely leave the country. You finish with five tastings: Chardonnay, Riesling, Tramin, Palava and Pinot Gris, watching the sun set over the Palava Lakes. The whole day runs eight hours from pickup to drop-off.
