The guided e-bike tour “Grand Tour Alps” through Switzerland, France and Italy was a great experience! The route led through beautiful landscapes and the routes were perfectly chosen. We really enjoyed the tour and can recommend it to anyone who enjoys riding an e-bike.
Exemplary organization, dream trails and landscapes, enchanting accommodation, tasty meals… A super dynamic team, always attentive, focusing on safety and offering constant technical support. The guides know how to adapt to everyone’s level. I did the Haute route des 3 pays (countries) and I was not disappointed by the technical level, challenges as I like them but well balanced, alternating with panoramic roads and walks through small villages. I’m already dreaming of a next adventure with E-Alps!! A big thank you to the whole team!!
Paradise for mtb. Very professional riders, excellent food, and you feel the love and passion the owners and the staff have for their clients and mtb. Beautiful place, it is a must visit!. Erick and Jess are very attentive, friendly and you feel this positive energy as soon as you get into their place.
Erik and Jess run an absolutely amazing place. It’s a perfect chalet in a wonderful setting with nothing less than remarkable food prepared by a charming and highly talented man named Lee. Erik, Jes and Ben are the best guides I’ve ever been with, whether it be on foot or on a bicycle. They go to enormous effort to make sure you have an astonishing mountain biking experience everyday you are their guest. I’ve been to a number of great bike hotels and MTB Verbier is at the very top of the list. I couldn’t have had a better time with the most fun, warm, welcoming and hyper-competent hosts/guides I’ve ever met.
Of course!
The Alps are a popular destination for mountain biking and cycling holidays, with routes designed for all experience levels. There are even iconic cycling races that take place in the Alps, like the Tour de France.
Packing for a cycling trip in the Alps requires preparation for variable weather conditions and the demands of riding in mountainous terrain.
Apart from this, standard rules apply: Bring moisture-wicking base layers, plenty of insulating gear, and some rain clothes. Each trip has its own demands, so make sure you check the “What do I need to bring?” section in the FAQ.
Training for your dream alpine cycling tour actually involves three elements:
The Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) can be biked, but it’s important to understand it’s not a traditional cycling route and requires some adjustments compared to a standard road bike path.
The TMB was originally designed as a multi-day hiking route, and some sections might not be suitable for cycling, particularly traditional road bikes. You’ll encounter unpaved sections, switchbacks, and potentially even some hike-a-bike portions, especially on steeper climbs.
Guided Tour du Mont Blanc bike tours usually circumvent these issues by offering alternative routes.
Of course, you can mountain bike the Haute Route. In fact, with an e-mountain bike, it’s more accessible than ever before!
The growing popularity of e-MTBs has opened up the Haute Route to a wider range of riders. E-bikes can assist with climbs, allowing you to enjoy the scenery and focus on technical sections. However, E-MTBs are still heavier than traditional bikes, so fitness and technical skills are still important.
