NO TIME, MEANS GOOD TIMES!

EXPLORER VS RACING

Firstly, a Enduro2 Explorer not a guided tour-group in the classic sense that you won’t have an actual guide leading your group.  You’ll follow the exact itinerary of The Race , which is fully signposted by us (so no navigation is required). We’ll have a tour co-ordinator (not a guide) sweeping at the back of your group to make sure everyone gets off the mountain safely each day, and to offer support and advice should you need it.  As necessary they can also co-ordinate with our dedicated medical and vehicle support crew, in case you need to take an early finish. As for everything we do both in New Zealand and in Europe, Ali will personally be overseeing every aspect of your 3 days out on the trails.  In fact, you’ll get the full experience of the main event, because you’ll be following along immediately behind the main race!   The benefit of this setup means you really do get the full Enduro2 experience !  For your safety, Cut-off time are mandatory and you’ll need to make it in time for these check-points in order to finish the day before the lift closes. 

SOLO OR WITH FRIENDS

Within your ‘Explorer group’ of 50 (max), you can split into smaller ride-buddy groups as you wish. If you’re solo, you won’t be for long – quickly meeting new friends is guaranteed when you are riding, sharing lifts, chatting at feedstation or at lunch.  If you want to push on to get through the day quickly, you don’t need wait for others in your group unless you want to. Having said that, our feedback from 20+ years of arranging package tours in Europe tells us that meeting like-minded people from around the world and sharing the experience with new friends as well as old ones, is a big part of what makes such an adventure a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Imagine having your own low-pressure group of riding buddies – doing your own thing, but still feeling fully included in the fun and festivities of the main event.  Yes, that includes our famous mountainside feed stations and BBQs, post-ride beers, and meeting friendly like-minded folk from all over the world.   And the added support of dedicated medical crew and professional mountain support – which you can’t get on any ‘regular’ guided tour.

FEEDBACK

The first Enduro2 was in Les Arcs in 2015 and at the time was amongst the first-ever pairs-format Enduro events in the world. Since then, we’ve grown into a Global Series and we’re always looking for the next ideal location to host our event.

We participated in the Enduro2 in Aletsch in 2026. The event was superb, the trails were challenging, and the atmosphere among the participants was incredible. We spent a weekend that felt like a month-long vacation, given the stunning scenery and the intense emotions we experienced. The closing party was also fantastic. We just want to go back! Thanks to the team!

What an amazing race in Aletsch! I’d say some of the most challenging trails of any Enduro2 venue I’ve ridden. Great organisation, good times and brilliant vibes throughout. An unforgettable three days on the bike. See you next year!

That was one of the best events I’ve been to. They really put in the work to shape those trails. The vibe was great and the organizers were awesome. You can tell they all work together as one.

Aletsch was intense, beautiful, well organized, very physical…hardest enduro2 I’ve done (5th). Saw some unbelievable nature. Almost only singletrack. Our teams had a blast and some broken bikes, but in the end it’s all about enjoying the trails with your mates and that we did. Thanks

The race was epic! Really well organised, great riding and the competitors were all a good laugh. Definitely a bucket-list race this one; I’ll hopefully be doing it again next year.

Awesome organization and great trails. 5 stars for sure. Less bike-park as first stage would be great, but I'm in charge it's difficult.

Simply one of the most fun mountain bike events in the world. Superb tracks with a mix of riding suitable for all skill levels without killing anybody (well, expect a couple of very spicy trails in the wet!!) and just a great atmosphere from start to finish. All the feed stations are superbly stocked and each day you get a sit-down rider lunch with the rest of the competitors that really feels special. This is not your average enduro race, and feels like good value too for how much hike time you get in stunning terrain. Finishing back in town with free beers and pumping music is the icing on the cake. Cheers to Ali, Gabi and all the crew 👍

Je voulais te remercier pour Enduro2. J'ai vraiment adoré, tout était super bien pensé, organisé même avec la pluie qui a rendu la course plus fun. Thomas (avec qui j'ai fait la course) a adoré aussi, et pour lui comme pour moi c'était sa première course. Merci encore pour tous les arrangements! On a pas fait un super score mais on s'est bien amusé. Tu es un organisateur génial! On reviendra l'année prochaine!

...just want to say what a great experience it was racing the Enduro2 and want to thank all your team. There must have been a massive amount of time spent organising this. We enjoyed every minute!

SKILL & FITNESS

We’d recommend only experienced trail & enduro riders consider this trip. A solid level of technical ability, confidence on exposed trails, general mountain awareness, self-sufficiency in bike-maintenance, and a sustainable day-to-day endurance are needed to get around safely and with a smile on your face.  Our ‘Regular’ and ‘Short Course’ options each day give ample choice for both intermediate and expert riders alike to test their limits, but without pushing yourself too far. 

If you’re not sure you are up to it, just drop Ali & Gabi an email right now, and let’s talk it through.
