Looking for a mountain bike destination that combines huge scenery, singletrack for the ages and logistics that actually work? Switzerland is a rider's paradise, and Exoride is the partner that lets you make the most of it.

Professional guides who ride for a living

Since 2010 we have been running MTB trips in Switzerland and abroad with one simple idea: guiding is a job, not a sideline. Our guides are Swiss Cycling certified, they ride these trails all season, and they adapt the day to the group rather than the other way round.

Logistics kept fully in house

Our own van, our own trailer, our own timings. No subcontractors, no waiting on a third party, no compromise on where we can go. That's what lets us change plans when the weather turns, reach the quiet valleys and stack descents all day long.

The best of enduro and all-mountain

Alpine singletrack, balcony traverses, rocky high-mountain sections and loamy forest descents: the Valais has it all within an hour's drive. We build days that string these together, from mellow flow to committing terrain.

A riding spirit above all

Small groups, a stop at a mountain hut, a proper meal and time to enjoy where you are. We're riders first, and the days we run are the ones we'd want to be on ourselves.
