Haute Route Chamonix-Zermatt MTB

Chamonix Zermatt, two legendary destinations.Inspired by the great ski mountaineering classic, we offer an exceptional program linking the ski and mountaineering capital to the most emblematic Swiss resort.

The first day takes us from France to Verbier in Switzerland via the our “home-trails” .

The second day goes from Verbier to Evolène on the Grand Raid Cristalp tracks

The third day is the highlight of the trip with passes near 9000 ft of altitude. We stop in Grimentz.

The fourth day offers us a good visibility on the progress of the trip with magnificent views of both the Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn.

The fifth day is perhaps the most exotic since we pass in german speaking territory. A very nice downhill awaits us to reach the Zermatt valley. 

The last day is shorter to make the most of Zermatt with its Gornergrat, Sunnega, views of the Matterhorn and its unique atmosphere.
