Day 1 - Marrakech

Upon arrival in Marrakech airport, our team will pick you up and drive you to our technical local to assemble the bikes and drop off your bike travel bag or cardboard box.

This will be your last moment within civilization before embarking on an breathtaking adventure to the rugged and remote mountains of the High Atlas.

Day 2 - Marrakech / Imi n'Ifri

We will leave Marrakech and its incessant activity to immerse ourselves in the most remote corners of the central High Atlas . This four-hour transfer will enable you to discover the vast, colorful scenery. Then we will start riding for a first warmup ride of 25 kilometers mixing technical section and pedaling parts. We will sleep in a familial gite and you will probably already forget the absolute comfort of your Marrakech riad... adventure really begins.

Day 3 - Aït Bouli

After your breakfast, you will be surprised to see that our driver has gone and was changed by mules. Those animals are useful in this remote area without roads or access and you will be surprised by their effeciency. Our new berber friends and their mules will be a precious part of our team for the upcoming days, giving this adventure a unique taste of pure adventure.

But don't worry, even if those mules are faster than us to go up carrying our bikes and bags, they will always be waiting for you on the top of ascent, to let us taking back our bikes to ride down these wild regions. So after three days hicking into some deep valley, we will ride a long and flowy trail to join our next gite.

Cours privé débutant: j'ai passé une excellente demi journée, Christian est pédagogue, prend du temps pour vraiment bien expliquer les techniques, comment progresser, trouve différents moyens pour faire assimiler les mouvements et avant de m'en rendre compte je faisais des descentes que je n'aurais jamais imaginé faire au 1er cours et tout ça avec bonne humeur. Je me suis franchement éclatée et je le recommande absolument!! Vivement le prochain cours😁

Fantastic day shuttling with Chris at Exoride last Sunday. If you're in the area or even if not, I'd highly recommend hitting up the trails he guides around Visp with Exoride! They're techy, flowy, rocky, whatever you want. Thanks guys!

Each time I have been out with Exoride the group and location has been different but the feeling has been the same. Chris is a considerate guide and coach who can take you to the best biking in Valais and also help you with ride better through educated advice. I fully recommend you spend some time with Exoride.
