Starting from Lions Park in Noosa Heads, this gentle e-bike tour is designed for easy riding and pure enjoyment. After a short safety briefing, you’ll set off along the scenic bikeways that follow the Noosa River, gliding past marinas, riverside parks, and the lively strip of Gympie Terrace. With the quiet hum of the e-bike doing the work, you can relax and take in the views of the Noosa Biosphere. Along the way, your guide shares insights into the local ecology and history, while inviting stops at cafés and rest points give you time to soak up the atmosphere. Perfect for newcomers to e-bikes or those who prefer a slower pace, the route is smooth, safe, and full of charm. More than just a ride, it’s a relaxed introduction to Noosa’s natural beauty and laid-back lifestyle—an adventure that leaves you refreshed, smiling, and eager for more.
