Mountain bike holidays in the Alps.

Bike-Alp are based in Briancon, in the high Alps, just on the Italy / France border of the southern Alps region.

After many years based in the northern Alps, near Morzine and Les Gets, we made the move to Briancon, which we consider to be the best big mountain riding available in the Alps. Briancon sits at the foot of some of the biggest names in Alpine passes, such as the Col du Galibier, Izoard, Granon and Telegraph. These are well known in the world of road riding, but equally offer amazing uplift possibilities to epic backcountry mtb, with minibus uplifts to a whopping 2700m altitude!

Even better, all these valleys around Briancon are home to a big number of lift systems that are open throughout the summer for mountain bikes. These offer endless opportunities for not just their bike parks, but access to some truly massive backcountry descents, with altitude drops of up to 2000m each time and a maximum altitude of 3300 metres, riding from the glaciers!

Our local ski system is Serre Chevalier, a huge ski system that gives us access to an instant 1500m altitude gain, a flowy bike park and huge natural singletrack descents back to the chalet. However we have access to plenty more, and a week's stay with us will include days in La Grave, Les 2 Alpes, Risoul, Puy St Vincent, Montgenevre, Sauze D'Oulx and many more.

This really is unlike any other Alps MTB trip you will have experienced before - higher, longer and way more epic. Come and experience the best Alps MTB holiday of your life!
