ENDURO MTB TRIPS OVERVIEW
Guided Enduro Mountain Biking in the Swiss Alps
ENDLESS SINGLETRACK, LONG BRAKE-BURNING DESCENTS, AND LIFE-CHANGING ADVENTURE RIDES
Enduro MTB is the fastest-growing style of riding in the mountain bike world, and Switzerland is the ultimate location for the best guided trips. Similar to backcountry or off-piste skiing, this is real adventure biking, and Epic Europe’s award-winning guides will show you their favorite MTB trails in the best locales in our corner of the Alps.
These multi-tool bikes are the ultimate weapon for the kind of riding we love the best here, where we use the ski lifts, trains, busses, and shuttles as a resource to gain altitude, pedal up a little further, and drop into the best trails of your life. This is what riding in the Alps is all about, whatever you want to call it.
We have spent years poring over topo maps to find just the right exposition, the ideal trail gradients, and the access points to deliver the ultimate enduro rides. The Swiss Rhône Valley is a paradise for this type of exploration, with exactly the right recipe of every factor to fulfill all riders’ dreams – a lifetime’s worth of rides. Italy’s Valle d’Aosta comes in a close second, and there are even rides where we can cross the border from one country to another. And not to forget the Engadin, with one of the best developed trail systems in Europe.

"Hiking in the Alps has always been on my bucket list, but I wasn't sure that a typical trip was my style. Epic Europe designed a custom route for our group, staying in the best little inns and hotels, and we felt like we had the trails to ourselves. I will come back again and again to explore new trails with their guides every year that I can!" - R.B., NY USA
