  • Bike guiding in verbier

    Hi all,
    I’m going to Europe this summer, with a couple of days in verbier, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a guiding company in this area for a couple of days, I know most places do full holidays though so this might be more of a challenge.
    Thanks in advance 🙂

    Get in touch with Bike Verbier.
    If they have space on the trailer they might take you out.

    OK thanks for that I will have a look.

    Does anyone have any experience with This company http://www.alpineroots-mtb.com
    They are quite new and he dosent mention any mtb qualifications but they would fit the bill quite nicely.

    I’d happily vote for Bike Verbier if they have space as I went on a holiday with them years ago, and despite the hike up to The Ultimate, I had a great time!

    However, re that other company mentioned, he does give his qualifications:

    In addition to extensive resort and mountain experience, Matt holds a degree in Sports and Exercise Science, has a mountain bike guiding qualification, has worked as a fitness instructor, as a bike mechanic and has first aid training so you can feel confident that not only will you be shown some of the best, uncrowded trails the alps has to offer, but also both you and your bike will be in safe hands along the way.

    Thought I reconised the area in the picture, we are off to Bike Verbier for two weeks in two weeks time as part of our Alps trip. There is only one company who I would want to guide us around the Verbier area and thats Bike Verbier. Their knowledge and experience is 1st class. As is their organisation and professionalism.

    Cant wait.

    +1 defo http://www.bikeverbier.com if you can join one of their groups. Amazing company and ridiculously good trails (often hidden-away backcountry trails only they will get you to). They’re also super-friendly, so try dropping them a line.

    Say Hi to Matt from Mat.

    He’ll guide to suit what you want.
