The best big mountain days aren’t about who climbs the highest or who rides the hardest—they’re about making the most of every meter. That’s why we’re starting this one in Le Châble with a lift ticket and a game plan: skip hours of grinding climbs, access the high alpine directly, then let gravity do what it does best. Between the morning lift and afternoon beers, we’ll climb just enough to earn our views before dropping into 2,000 meters (6,562 feet) of pure descent, winding through diverse terrain that challenges and rewards in equal measure. We can bring our MTB skills or let an e-bike smooth the climbs—either way, this is big mountain riding done right.
