Highlights
-
Two moods in one day
Enchanted forest and loamy soil in the morning, high mountains and a long traverse in the afternoon.
-
Mont Blanc right in front of you
From the high-altitude dam, the view over the massif sets off the descent.
-
The Trétien gorges as a backdrop
A spectacular setting, unknown to those who only drive through the valley.
-
A rare variety of terrain
Descending sections, short pedalling stretches and brief hike-a-bikes: the ground never stops changing.
-
A local Swiss Cycling certified guide
He knows the valley by heart and runs the group smoothly, for maximum rhythm.
-
Two beautiful all-mountain routes along the Trient Valley
40 km
1'100 m
3'000 m
Back to MartignyA first drop-off takes us up above Martigny. A pleasant, steady pedal leads to a fine rolling ridge that fills the whole morning, in an enchanted forest with wonderfully loamy soil, alternating good descending sections, short pedalling stretches and brief hike-a-bikes.
A second drop-off in the afternoon brings us to the shores of a magnificent high-altitude reservoir, with a direct, unobstructed view over the Mont Blanc massif. From there a fine traverse awaits, then a superb plunge towards the Rhône valley, with the Trétien gorges as a backdrop.
Your guide, a Swiss Cycling certified instructor and still an active racer, picks the lines according to the conditions and runs the group smoothly, for maximum rhythm.

This tour is rated 3/4: varied trails, with gradient, roots and a few short hike-a-bikes, and 1'100 m of climbing spread over the day. You need an advanced level and to be at ease on technical terrain.
Prefer a day without climbing, or more flowing terrain? Have a look at our level 2/4 shuttle days.
Location and times
Meeting in the morning in Martigny, and back to the starting point in the late afternoon. The exact place and time are confirmed with the practical details after registration.
Meals
Bring a packed lunch. At each drop-off you set out with your riding kit for the whole rotation: backpack with back protector, repair kit, windbreaker, packed lunch and something to drink.
Climate
The morning is spent in the forest, the afternoon at altitude, where the weather can change fast: take a windbreaker and a warm layer. If the weather is uncertain the guide adapts the route; if the day looks really bad, it's postponed at no cost to you.
Safety
Small group, professional Swiss Cycling guide who knows the Trient valley by heart, checked gear, a briefing before every descent, mandatory protection. The guide runs the group smoothly, with regrouping points in the right places.
Ready to ride?
Convinced? Small group, limited places: hit the registration button and book your spot.
No date suits you, or you'd rather ride just with your group? We also run this tour privately: send us your request.
A doubt, a question? Write to us, we answer quickly.
-
How many riders per group?
A small group, generally between five and ten riders: enough for the atmosphere, few enough to ride together safely and at the group's pace.
-
How do I know if I have the level for this tour?
Every tour shows its technical and fitness rating out of 4, and the « Required level » paragraph describes the terrain concretely. If the ratings match what you ride regularly, you're in the right place; if in doubt, write to us before signing up, we'll point you to the right tour in two minutes.
-
Can I come with an e-bike?
Yes, e-bikes are welcome on our tours. What matters most: a full-suspension bike, 130 to 180 mm of travel, well serviced, with a battery charged for the day.
-
Can I rent a bike?
Yes, MTB or e-bike rental and protection are offered as options in the registration form. Give us your size, we take care of the rest.
-
Who is our guide?
Tours in the Valais are led by a local professional MTB guide, Swiss Cycling certified, who rides in the Swiss Alps all year round and knows the trails like the back of his hand. You're in good hands!
-
What's the typical participant profile?
Riders aged 20 to 65, men and women, with very varied profiles. What matters: having the technical and fitness level the tour requires, and the desire to share a great day of mountain biking.
-
What kind of riding should I expect?
We like to vary the trails we ride as much as possible: routes are 99 % trails, with scenery that changes as the day goes on. The pace is that of the group and of the tour's rating, with breaks to enjoy the view.
-
How do the transfers work?
Depending on the tour, transfers are by private shuttle (the Exo'bus) from the meeting point shown on the date, or by lifts. Practical details (meeting place and time, any lift pass) are sent after registration.
-
Do I ride all day with all my gear?
Yes: unlike our shuttle days, a tour is ridden point to point, so you keep your riding gear with you all day (backpack with back protector, repair kit, windbreaker, packed lunch and something to drink). Hence the point of travelling light and taking only what you need.
-
What should I plan for lunch?
A packed lunch: depending on the programme, there isn't always somewhere to buy food along the way. Bottles can be refilled regularly, and a few snacks for the day never hurt.
-
What happens in bad weather?
The Valais generally offers ideal conditions. If the weather is uncertain, the programme adapts; if the day looks really bad, the tour is postponed, decision taken the day before, at no cost to you.
-
No date suits me: can I organise this tour privately?
Yes, at any time of the season. If no date suits you, if you want to ride just with friends, family or your club, we run this tour privately, on the date that suits you. Request your private tour, we'll get back to you quickly with a proposal.
-
What insurance should I plan?
Every participant must be covered for accidents, including on a mountain bike, and hold all the cover needed for mountain biking in the mountains: accidents, personal liability, as well as search, rescue and evacuation costs, helicopter included. For participants coming from abroad, the cover must be valid in Switzerland.
Note: some insurers apply special clauses or even exclusions for bike-park and lift-served riding. Check this point with your insurer before signing up.

Paul Liogier
Enduro Maroc is top-notch, with impeccable organization, trails that are as challenging as they should be, and long, long, long descents in a magnificent setting. And for the foodies, the food is amazing.
It doesn't feel like an organized tour, but more like you're on the trails you would have chosen with your group of friends, with the shuttle as a bonus. Bravo, Christian!
-
Dami DLP
A splendid day! Incredible trails in Upper Valais, perfectly adapted to the group's level,
Chris is super friendly and extremely accommodating! (precious mechanical help on this day when my bike didn't feel like working! :D) -
Lucien Chatelan
Haut Valais outing, perfect weather, what a pleasure.

Yves Chauffaut
The Best of the Best! Insane singletracks, 6400m of vertical drop, in a superb atmosphere among riders!
Just like in Finale 🇮🇹, but in the Valais Region 🇨🇭 🇨🇭 ☀️
Can't wait for the next outing with Chris and Exoride! -
Daniela Loosli
We had a truly awesome week in Morocco with Chris. A big thank you for the top-notch organization and the superb trails. An excellent mix of biking and discovering the local culture over a delicious tajine or Moroccan tea.
This will surely not be our last bike trip with Chris. -
Moshik Zur
We just came back from a wonderful mountain biking experience with Chris. We stayed at his guesthouse, which has an incredible view of the Alps.
We started in Verbier with a day of coaching that brought us all to a new level of riding, thanks to Chris's insightful feedback.
The next day, we did shuttles in Valais and had a lot of fun.
Chris's enthusiasm for mountain biking is contagious.
As a coach, he understands your limits and helps you progress, while making you feel safe.
As a host, he provides a very attentive service to make your stay comfortable.
You won't find a better mountain biking experience than this! -

Cyril Deburaux
Great team, great bus, and great atmosphere. Chris knows all the best trails in Valais and is super professional (there's even a spare bike in the shuttle...). I've taken shuttles in many countries, and this Swiss experience is really a bargain for this quality of service.
Don't think twice: sign up for their next sessions.

Francois Fanch
Thank you Christian for your good humor, your humility and above all for the knowledge of your region! Even in... Breton weather?
You found us some beautiful, beautiful lines!
And thanks also to the driver, discreet but just as friendly and who takes care of our bikes!To be done again without a doubt!

Vincent Héritier
Chris and his team are top-notch, Chris knows Valais and its trails like the back of his hand, he is friendly and a good teacher when needed.
He's a top rider and takes great photos too. Sore eyes because the mountains are so beautiful, and sore arms too, because the trails are so tempting.
In short, pure happiness!
See you soon Chris, for sure ;) -
Daniel Fehl
I spent a week with Christian exploring the Valais region between Orsières and Zermatt.
It was an incredible experience: the mountain biking challenges, the mountain views, the mountain huts for lunch, and the homemade dinners.
Each day, we took a shuttle to a new location and used the lifts as much as possible, then the e-MTB for additional climbs.
He adapted the descents/traverses according to my abilities and desires. He knows the local trails, huts, and access points very well.
I end this week with gratitude, a sense of wonder at the Alps, and the desire to return for more adventures. -
Cédric Monnet
Awesome day!!! Whether you're a beginner or comfortable on the MTB trail, Chris guides you with great technical advice, patience and happiness..!!!
A great new feature at EXORIDE: e-MTB courses, with tips on how to handle these latest-generation machines and use them to their full potential on the terrain, downhill and.... uphill..!!!
Have fun with EXORIDE !!!
