Seignosse electric scooter tour: Fat bike forest trails

Ride sandy forest trails on fat-wheel electric scooters and learn how the Landes ecosystem works

An electric scooter activity in Seignosse where you ride fat-wheel bikes through forest paths in the Landes, discovering the local ecosystem with a live guide who adapts to your level. The tour runs 90 minutes and departs from Seignosse or Hossegor. Helmet and gloves are provided, and all equipment is disinfected between riders. Minimum age is 14. The guide speaks English or French.

The experience

The iZi RIDER team has been running electric off-road rides since 2016, and the fat-wheel scooters are what make the sandy paths passable. You'll spend 90 minutes riding through forest trails in the Landes, the landscape that defines this corner of France: terrain that would be difficult on a regular bike but opens up on these big-wheel electric scooters. The guide explains the particular ecosystem as you go and shares their passion for electric mobility, adapting the pace and stops to whether you're a beginner, amateur or experienced rider.

The route stays on forest paths, not roads, so you're moving through nature rather than around it. The scooters handle the soft ground, and the guide picks the stops based on what makes sense to show you about how the Landes work. You'll need to be at least 14 years old and reasonably comfortable on a two-wheeled vehicle, but the activity suits all fitness levels. The scooter does the work, not your legs.
