This is an excellent and challenging mountain bike route that combines big climbs, technical descents, spectacular scenery and charming accommodation in high Alps. We start from our chalet base in the Chamonix Valley. 5 days of riding to circumnavigate the awesome Alpine range of Mont Blanc. We leave with the assistance of a cable car ride to the Col du Balme, and then it’s a fast single-track descent to Trient, followed by another superb descent into Switzerland from the Col du Forclaz. We continue via Champex du Lac and the Col Ferret into Italy, traversing Alpine meadows and climbing a succession of high passes that reveal breathtaking and ever-changing perspectives of the Mont Blanc Massif. Returning into France via the Col du Joly.
