In Costa Rica, the northwestern province of Guanacaste is a big place for biking tours. Especially mountain biking due to its rugged terrain of mountains and volcanoes. But now, electric mountain bike tours in Costa Rica are making the sport of mountain biking accessible to everyone. This new technology allows people of all abilities to explore the Costa Rica countryside by bike.

“You can climb any steep hill or ride on difficult terrain like sand with ease,” says Franck Daléry of Electric Bike Costa Rica. “The electric technology gives you extra power to do what your legs alone could not do on an extreme mountain bike tour. Very steep hills, which normally would be too difficult on a traditional bike, are conquered easily on an electric bicycle.”
