Like many, Erik was first attracted by Verbier’s reputation for stellar skiing, but when the snow melted, he discovered a world-class MTB venue underneath. He’s been living in the area since 2003. As the heart and motor of MTB Verbier, Erik relishes every moment he gets to spend on big mountain adventures and introducing his guests to local nature and culture. His favorite trail is Colle de Mille, which runs under the north face of Mont Rogneux.
