Arrival in Chamonix

To begin your journey with complete ease, we recommend arriving in Chamonix one or two days early—particularly if renting gear. This allows you to properly fit and test your equipment, making sure boots and skis feel just right for the adventure ahead.

On demand: Overnight in a cosy 4-star spa hotel in Chamonix.

Day 1: Chamonix

WELCOME TO CHAMONIX

Your adventure begins in Chamonix, the cradle of mountaineering. After meeting your guide and fellow adventurers, the first ski day takes you to Le Brévent. From its panoramic slopes, you’ll enjoy incredible views over the Mont Blanc massif while carving your first turns of the week — the perfect warm-up to step into the rhythm of the Alps.

 

Overnight: cosy 4-star hotel in Chamonix.

Day 2: Descent of the Vallée Blanche

20 KM OF DESCENT

Descent of the Vallée Blanche

Weather and mountain conditions will guide our plans, but when all aligns, we take the Aiguille du Midi cable car to over 3,600 meters for one of the Alps’ most unforgettable experiences. Only when conditions are safe do we ski the legendary Vallée Blanche — a 20-kilometer descent across a living glacier, surrounded by spectacular seracs and ice sculptures. A once-in-a-lifetime adventure, never guaranteed, always earned. After this epic day, we will enjoy a comfortable transfer to Verbier, ready to continue our journey across the Alps.

Overnight: cozy 4-star hotel in Verbier

Day 3: Verbier Adventure

WORLD'S MOST ICONIC FREERIDE DESTINATIONS

After a hearty breakfast in Verbier, one of the world’s most iconic freeride destinations, we set out to explore its legendary off-piste terrain. From expansive powder bowls to discreet hidden couloirs, your guide will reveal why Verbier has such a magnetic pull on skiers from around the globe.

Overnight: cozy 4-star hotel in Verbier

Day 4: Verbier

OFF HE BEATEN TRACK EXPLORATION

This day is all about venturing beyond the obvious lines. With your guide, explore the hidden side of the Verbier region — from secret powder stashes and secluded descents to neighbouring small alpine stations where untouched slopes await. When conditions allow, we may use skins to access more remote and wilder terrain, far from the crowds. This experience reveals the authentic, less-travelled side of the Val de Bagnes and Verbier’s wider playground.

At the end of this rewarding day on the snow, we’ll transfer to Zermatt to continue our ski adventure beneath the iconic Matterhorn.

Overnight: cozy 4-star hotel in Verbier

Day 5: Zermatt

THE MATTERHORN

After a morning breakfast overlooking the Matterhorn, we set off to explore Zermatt’s high-alpine playground. Beyond the resort’s vast glacial slopes, and when conditions allow, we may attach skins to reach more remote, untouched areas — a true blend of resort skiing and backcountry touring surrounded by legendary alpine summits. 

Overnight: cozy 4-star hotel in Zermatt

Day 6: Zermatt

HIGH ALPINE ADVENTURE

A new day rises under the timeless gaze of the Matterhorn. We journey into the high alpine for off-piste skiing above 3,500 meters, surrounded by glaciers and a crown of towering peaks. If conditions are favorable, we’ll add a ski-touring approach with skins to reach quieter, untouched zones, deepening the sense of exploration.

Overnight: cozy 4-star hotel in Zermatt.

An unforgettable experience from start to finish! The Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt is far more than an MTB trip, it's a true alpine adventure. Over 7 incredible days we rode 287 km, climbed more than 12,300 meters, and experienced everything the Alps have to offer: spectacular mountain passes, glaciers, bike parks, endless singletracks, technical rock gardens, flowing descents, steep climbs, forests, rivers, and breathtaking scenery at every turn.

Have just finished the Chamonix to Zermatt Haute route with E Alps. It was a fantastic trip. Our guides Clement and Gaspar were brilliant. They taught us new skills, encouraged us to try new things and made us laugh! Eduardo prepared great food each day and made the logistics of looking after clients seem easy. The Hotels we stayed in were good ( la Sage and Bella Tolla were fantastic), the scenery was incredibly beautiful but the guides were the cherry on the cake!

Kevin Oliver

I cannot say enough about the extraordinary experience we had on the Friends and Family Haute Route mountain bike trip with E-Alps. Our guides, Boris and Elise, were truly exceptional. Their deep local knowledge brought the stunning Swiss Alps to life in a way that only true experts can, enriching every moment of the journey with fascinating insights and insider tips. What impressed me most was their incredible effort and dedication throughout the trip. They skillfully adapted and improvised routes and plans to meet the unique needs and preferences of each participant, ensuring everyone felt supported and challenged in just the right way.
