Join a group of outdoorsy women in Verbier and explore one of the best and the largest MTB playgrounds in the Alps! With a dense network of lifts and decades worth of trail creation, one thing is for sure—this place takes mountain biking seriously. You can enjoy the versatility of Verbier’s world-class bike park or hit dozens of trails in the mountain wilderness. Over a week, we’ll pedal our way through gorgeous meadows to the sound of cowbells and switch it up with descents along trails with roots beneath our tires—until we get to a cobblestone street with centuries-old wooden houses. Our base will be a luxurious Verbier chalet, complete with a sauna and the most beautiful garden.

The adventure, day by day

The Verbier trail network is unrivaled and your guide knows the best places to take you day after day, finishing with a laid-back afternoon in your luxurious chalet. After a week of this all-inclusive tour, you will walk away with new friendships with other fierce women, recharged by pristine Alpine nature, and more confident on two wheels. 

Day 1: Welcome to Verbier!
Main street of the town of Verbier, a charming Alpine town in Switzerland.

Arrive in our chalet in Verbier by 4pm, settle in and meet your guides and fellow riders. We will do a bike and gear check before dinner, during which you will get a chance to fully make yourself at home and spend some quality time with your group. Dinner is at 7pm. At around 8pm, a briefing with your guide will take place—we will discuss the program, personal goals and expectations, and receive some useful trail information. Get a good night’s sleep as your Verbier guided riding tour starts tomorrow!

Meals: Dinner

 

Days 2-6: Learn, ride, recharge—repeat!

Our days will begin with a laid-back breakfast on the terrace, soaking in the morning sun and taking in the beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. By 9.15 am, you will discuss the objectives for that day with your guide. Each morning will be dedicated to riding skills and instruction. After lunch, enjoy the rides and test the newly mastered skills. The regular and the advanced programs differ mainly in the type of terrain covered and how strenuous riding is, while other things remain the same. Needless to say, there will always be time for numerous breaks allowing you to take in the views of the snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and beautiful alpine fields!

By 4:30pm, you will have returned to your chalet. At 6:15pm, there will be an evening stretch and relaxation sessions, followed by a three course dinner with wine! We’ll also have a pizza night, baking fresh homemade pizzas in our wood-fired oven. Unwind, mingle with fellow mountain bikers, and get some rest for the following day.

Meals: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner

Day 7: Say goodbye to the Swiss Alps

Having said that, the Alps are still challenging terrain and some experience mountain biking is required. Expect technically demanding terrain requiring intermediate to advanced bike-handling skills.

  • If you’re coming to MTB in Verbier, your bike will need to be in top condition. A full suspension bike with 130 / 150 mm travel is required as well as gears suitable for steeps. It’s best to have the lightest gear you can find. On 2×11 set ups go for a 22 or 24 in front and a 42 on the rear cassette. When riding 1×11 or 1×12, a 28 or 30 set up in front (standard will be a 32 or 34 in front on most set ups) is recommended. You’ll definitely need those. When in doubt—the lighter, the better.

    For tires, it’s recommended that you have a wider tire of a minimum of 2.3 with an all-round thread. Lightweight and narrow XC tires are not suitable. A dropper seat post is highly recommended or an easy way to lower your seat manually.

    If you’d like to skip the hassle of bringing your own bike, you can rent one with your guides upon booking—and they’ll set you up with a standard bike (specialized StumpjumperAlloy), an e-bike (specialized Turbo Levo, Scott Patron 920), or a premium bike (Stumpjumper EVO carbon, Scott Genius ST 910, Orbea Occam SL M30, Santa Cruz).

  • Yes, your guides offer bike rental—you can add it to your booking at checkout

    You have a choice between a standard bike (specialized StumpjumperAlloy), an e-bike (specialized Turbo Levo, Scott Patron 920), and a premium bike (Stumpjumper EVO carbon, Scott Genius ST 910, Orbea Occam SL M30, Santa Cruz).
