    Hi EPK13.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Not sure what kind of cycling you have in mind, but you should be aware that a large part of that region is mountainous with substantial elevation changes. There are some parts that are easier or more moderate, including the Lauterbrunnen Valley, and some parts of the lake shores, and Meiringen. There are certainly plenty of opportunities for mountain biking.

    I don’t know of a tour company myself, but perhaps Arno and Annika can help.

    A resource to learn more about cycling trails is Switzerland Mobility – look at the cycling tab:

    There is also a Mountain Bike tab.
