Motorcycle trips

Our 2026 Eifel trip was the perfect way to start the riding season. A weekend filled with twisty roads, beautiful scenery, and great company.

With six riders in the group, this trip was not only about having fun but also about gaining experience. One rider had recently upgraded from an A1 licence to an A2 licence, while another had never ridden abroad through so many corners, climbs, and descents. The Eifel turned out to be the perfect training ground before our upcoming trip to the French Alps later this year.

Most importantly, we were all excited to be back on our motorcycles after the winter and enjoy another unforgettable weekend together.

Our trip to the Dolomites and the Italian Alps was done with three members of De Natte Zwaluw and has been the most epic ride so far. From legendary hotspots like the Stelvio Pass to remote mountain roads deep in the Dolomites, every day delivered unforgettable riding.

This trip requires a bit of riding experience, but it rewards you with incredible scenery, challenging mountain passes, and some of the best roads Europe has to offer.

Our first motorcycle camping trip with De Natte Zwaluw took us to Luxembourg, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. A full weekend of riding, camping, and discovering what motorcycle travel is really about.

From winding roads and stunning scenery to campfire evenings and cold drinks by the river, we experienced it all. The weather wasn’t always perfect, but the ride, the routes, and the good company made every moment worth it.

This trip showed us that motorcycle camping is something we want to do a lot more often.

The beginning of De Natte Zwaluw started with our trip to Austria. Riding inland from the Netherlands, we travelled through the beautiful Eifel region and continued via the Black Forest toward Austria.

This was our first real long-distance motorcycle trip and it taught us a lot. One of our riders completed the entire journey on a 125cc motorcycle, proving that you should never let engine size hold you back.

Our very first motorcycle trip together took us to the Eifel. A weekend away to test what traveling by motorcycle was like, filled with great roads, beautiful landscapes, and good times.

We enjoyed stunning routes through the Eifel and relaxed evenings with an ice-cold Erdinger at Papelhof. A weekend we will never forget, taking place before De Natte Zwaluw existed, but marking the start of our love for motorcycle trips.

From September 14th to September 19th, we will be joining ColSensation at Mont Ventoux for a truly special week. This year marks an important milestone for us, as it will be the first time Natte Zwaluw has been invited to take part as official motorcycle support riders.

Throughout the event, we will help guide and support participants as they take on the legendary climb of Mont Ventoux. From assisting with logistics and rider safety to providing support along the route, we are proud to contribute to an event that combines determination, community, and a meaningful cause.

Being trusted with this role is something we're incredibly grateful for, and we look forward to experiencing this unique event from a completely new perspective.

After the event, we'll share the full story, including photos, videos, behind-the-scenes moments, route information, and our experiences as first-time motorcycle support riders on Mont Ventoux.

A new challenge, a great honour, and an unforgettable week await. See you on Mont Ventoux!
