In the summer of 2026, Ride will add its first full-week camp to its lineup—and kick things off with a high-Alpine highlight: the Western Alps Cross from Aosta to Briançon with its own shuttle.

The week-long enduro tour takes you from the foot of Mont Blanc to the foot of the Écrins. The high-alpine glacial backdrop is one of the tour’s defining features. Even more impressive, however, are the trails—and the French High Alps deliver the full experience. The highlight of the week-long trip: thanks to the private shuttle, it’s all about pure enduro. Thomas Giger and Eric Haufe take turns each day as shuttle driver and guide, respectively. 

The week kicks off with the legendary Col Malatra and its epic descent through the Val Ferret. Via Bourg-Saint-Maurice, the route continues to the ski areas near Val Thorens—though we’re not interested in their tourist traps. More relevant is the crossing into the Maurienne Valley, and from there onward over a pass parallel to the legendary Col du Galibier in the Serre Chevalier region, leading to the outskirts of Briançon. The grand finale is the descent into the Vallouise Valley and the ride down into the Val Durance south of Briançon. All in all, the ultimate trail and enduro experience.
