Team events on wheels

Pure nostalgia: With the engine rattling and the wind in your face, you cruise leisurely through the Emmental on a moped with a group of up to 42 people. On quiet roads, you enjoy the romance of days gone by and the shared experience. A stop at the Kambly factory shop is part of the tour, where more than one hundred varieties of biscuits can be tasted. Whether as a day trip or an evening event with an after-work beer, no one gets left behind.

Each team builds its own racing car and then competes against the other groups. Using the available materials and tools, the teams turn a basic vehicle frame into a race-ready soapbox car. Once it has passed the safety check, it is time to hit the track. The aim is to cover the longest possible distance, with extra points awarded for creativity and ingenuity in the design.

Together on two wheels: «Vini-Trotti» combines activity, enjoyment and team spirit in the vineyards around Lake Biel. The «vinifuni» takes you from Ligerz up to Prêles, before the group sets off downhill through the vineyards on scooters. Along the way, fascinating insights into the region and its wines add variety to the experience. On request, the team event can be complemented with a wine tasting, an aperitif or a suitable supporting programme.

It's the perfect way to round off an adventurous day trip to the Niederhorn – zoom down the mountain on a scooter bike. The speed and route are entirely up to you. There's two runs to choose between, both leading from the Vorsass mid-way station to the Beatenberg station. Rocky's Run will see you racing straight down to the end destination. Those who prefer a more leisurely journey can take the slightly longer Happy’s Trail. Fun and exhilaration are guaranteed on both.

No less than 7 different routes covering 45 kilometres are waiting to be explored by scooter on Vogellisi Mountain in Adelboden. Zoom from Sillerenbühl to Bergläger or from Aebi to Adelboden with the wind in your hair and the popular Vogellisi folk song in your ears. And if you want to do it all over again, simply catch the next bus or train back up the mountain.

Whether your ride on a mountain cart is high-speed or leisurely, it’s bound to be great fun. To cruise from the Metschstand top station to the Metsch middle station in Lenk takes about fifteen minutes. On the way, make sure not to forget to admire the wonderful alpine panorama all around you.

Feel the wind in your hair as you follow the Sense river to the Wittenberg leisure park. Up to four people can join forces on the rail bicycle to whiz through to the picturesque landscape of the Sense valley. At the leisure park, a range of activities await, giving participants opportunity to demonstrate their dexterity and skills – for example in archery.

The "Trampelwurm" is a joyfully bizarre vehicle and the only one of its kind across Europe. A curios string of recumbent bicycle-like units, it's as long as a lorry but has no engine. Accommodating a maximum of 10 riders, the 18-metre vehicle is purely people-powered. Riders can choose between pedalling, rowing, cranking and treadling. The "Trampelwurm" can be hired for city tours around Thun and always comes with a driver.

The Spiez culinary train combines delicious food with an enjoyable ride through Spiez and its surrounding farmlands. Only the chauffeur knows where the journey will lead. The guests can simply sit back and wait to find out where the starter, the main course and the dessert will be served. But one thing is certain – the excursion is entertaining and the food is delicious.

In terms of panoramic views, the Frienisberg scenic trail offers everything you could want. As you make your way along the 55-kilometre route with 865 metres elevation gain, you are rewarded with unique views of the Bernese Alps, the three-lakes region and the city of Bern. If you book the guided tour you will also discover the locals' favourite spots and hear interesting stories about the attractions you pass en route. By the way: Guided tours can also be booked for other e-bike trails around the city of Bern and the Emmental.

Do you want to treat your group to some exercise, but without the exhaustion? Do you like being out and about in nature? If so, then an e-bike tour to Lake Lauenen is the perfect thing for you. Accompanied by guides, your team will set off, initially on a tarmacked path. With every metre you cover, the scenery becomes more idyllic. Past the chalet village of Lauenen, the group enters the nature reserve and soon arrives at the picturesque mountain lake. As a reward, regional specialities are a firm feature both in the lake-side restaurant and the barbecue by the lake.
