Ride Beyond the Resort and
Explore the Island

Venture out of the resort on two wheels by hopping on an electric mountain bike and exploring Rote Island on guided cycling routes designed for every level of rider. Ride beneath gently swaying palm trees along scenic coastal paths and through traditional villages where weaving, music, and daily rituals continue unchanged by time.

Our private cycling tours around Rote’s diverse landscapes are of various lengths. Cycle down the rolling hills at exhilarating speeds or cruise across the flat landscapes. The pace you choose to pedal around Rote is up to you. This is a fun activity that you can do alone or as part of a group that will immerse you in the culture and nature of Indonesia’s most south-eastern corner.

Guided around Rote on your e-bike, our expert team will curate the perfect route to suit your ability and enthusiasm. The experiences you’ll have on this tailored activity will leave a lasting memory as one of the best things you did in Rote.
