Glacier Bike Tour

Minimum travel time: 8m to Sumvitg-Cumpadials

Departing from St.Moritz, this e-bike tour takes you to the heart of the Swiss Alps, through three cantons, over three legendary passes, along three iconic rivers, to the famous village of Zermatt. While the first seven legs take mountain bikers from the upper Engadine valley to Andermatt, the Furka Pass marks the entry into Valais at the tour's highest point, 2,429 m above sea level. There's no shortage of highlights here, with the first near the Rhône glacier, where the river rises before becoming France's largest, hundreds of kilometres further on. From mountainous landscapes to vineyards, from glaciers to forests, from Alpine parks to lowland towns, from riversides to the heart of valleys, Valais unveils a varied and exhilarating route, crossing the magnificent Goms valley, the Binntal and the town of Visp before heading up the Zermatt valley for a breathtakingly beautiful finish at the foot of the Matterhorn.
