Ride the Earth – UNESCO Global Geoparks Bike Destinations
Ride landscapes with a story
UNESCO Global Geoparks are made for exploring by bike. Mountains, valleys, forests, coastlines and old mining landscapes offer much more than great riding – every landscape has a story shaped over millions of years.
Mountain bike, e-MTB, gravel or road bike: cycling lets you slow down, leave the main tourist routes and discover nature, geology, local culture and communities along the way.
Initiated by Bikenomad, Ride the Earth connects UNESCO Global Geoparks that see cycling as a sustainable and authentic way to explore their territories.
Karawanken-Karavanke UNESCO Global Geopark, our home Geopark, is where the initiative started and became its first cycling destination.
One planet. Millions of years of stories. Explore them by bike.
