Explore Three Countries via the Alps

TALK TO US ABOUT A SELF-GUIDED TRIP →
Our self-guided option allows you to ride, using maps (or if you bring a GPS we will provide the route!), through Austria, Switzerland and Italy, via the Alps, over three days, off-road on natural trails. We will transport your luggage between your hotels so you get maximum riding without any of the fuss.

You can start and end your trip in Livigno, where you can take in the hundreds of well marked flow country trails and bike park. We offer this trip as either a 5 day or 7 day option. In the 7 day option you get a couple of days to ride in Livigno on top of the 3 days riding across the alps, country to country - perfect for acclimatising to the altitude. 

You can choose between two different routes (which can be decided upon when you arrive in Livigno, and you can change daily as they start and end in the same place!)
​

The four stages of this trip promise high-altitude trails, interesting pass crossings with breathtaking views, great slopes and lovely river paths. 

We also offer non-biking activities such as hiking, wine tasting and lake activities as part of the Livigno part of your stay. Just ask us for more details!

Pick your route depending on your ability

Picture
Route A
Suitable for very strong riders, with a good off road biking technique - it's tough!

With 7,300m in altitude and 230km of riding is ideal for very strong riders who are in good to excellent physical condition and above all have good off road skills and like the thrill of pure back country riding. 

This is the toughest and recommended for riders in good shape (although you not do have to be a Superman/woman) but the elevation and length of riding is 6743 meters elevation and 198 km over 4 days.

​Of course you have the choice each day as to which route you want to take so you have choose the easier option on some days if you wish, as the start and arrival points are the same.

Picture
Route B 
A more gentle route - suitable for riders that regularly ride but don't feel confident with large drop offs and jumps.

A less intense option but still fun and challenging. With slightly less altitude of 5,000m to climb and 175km of riding it is suitable for those who regularly ride and are physically fit. 

​Route B is the easier version of the Free to Roam Tour. This option is still not easy and not for unfit to riders with no off road experience. You have to ride 168 km and climb 5250 metres over 4 days but this route is more accessible than Route B.
​

We will transport you to your first hotel from the airport and then move you luggage each day while you're out riding. ​


​Weather conditions are also important, if you ride your Free to Roam Tour on sunny days it will be very different then riding a stage with rain or cold wind.
