Preferably natural singletrack and footpaths. Not really fussed for bike parks but don't mind the odd day.

Done Les Arcs a few times. Went to Verbier last year. Where's the best place you've ridden? Preferably looking for a guided and catered stay. It more importantly guided.

Haven't been to Morzine for about 10 years but I not sure about there. Is it just downhill tracks and bike parks? Is a guide necessary to find all the best natural singletrack?

Thanks in advance for your reccomendations.

Forgot to mention - with as little uphill pedalling as possible!

Stayed with MTB Verbier so I guess similar trails. A little bit of pedalling but not a massive amount. Headed to Pila for the chalets day off. Pila to Aosta valley was the best trail I've ever ridden.

You get alot more riding away from Verbier with Bike Verbier. New trails further afield every year. Done the Pila to Aosta run a few times. Stopped off there for a couple of days last year on our way from Verbier to Finale. There is a good reason why Bike Verbier get repeat clients.

Does it have to be the Alps?

Can't recommend Ciclo Montana highly enough, great riding on mostly natural singletrack, great guiding by Marco and others, great food and more reliable weather than the Alps and without too much climbing.
