Bikepacking
Bikepacking is a way of cycling that perfectly combines all the advantages of this mode of transport. As the name suggests, bikepacking is where you move around by bike and carry light luggage. For example, you could incorporate a simple overnight stay into your tour, or plan a day-long stage ride right away. It doesn’t matter if you take your tent with you or stay in a hotel.

Meanwhile, there are a lot of accessories for those who like to travel regularly by bike and light luggage. Almost all well-known outdoor manufacturers from Ortlieb to Vaude have special bikepacking collections on offer.
