LeRipp was founded by three friends out of shared love for the mountains, admittedly mostly during the winter time. As we started to spend more and more time in the mountains during the winter, we naturally overlapped into spring and summer. Suddenly, a pair of skis were exchanged for a pair of wheels and it all went downhill from there... This is our mountain story.
After x-amount of seasons, in both Chamonix and Engelberg, spent in the saddle of our bikes exploring the surrounding mountains, we decided that the riding here is too good not to be shared. What started as a cool idea, ironically amidst all the Covid-19 travel restrictions, began to take shape during the winter of 2020 as we could sense that the urge for travelling again and experience the great outdoors is on the rise.
Our three founders have all followed different paths in life and developed complementary skills in hospitality, specialist travel and business. We took the leap of faith to start LeRipp with an ambition to combine our experiences and passions to bring a truly differentiated mountain bike experience to the market.
Everyone always says that "life is too short not to follow your dreams and passions". Therefore, we decided to act on it and start LeRipp Mountain Bike Escapes and share with you some of the best mountain bike trails we have ever ridden. Join us and become part of your our mountain story.
Chamonix is world-famous for extreme sports and mountain biking here is no exception. With towering peaks, epic views, and trail variety that’ll blow your mind, it’s a dream playground for riders who live for the ride.
What makes the Chamonix MTB scene special? A passionate local community that constantly sculpts new singletracks and maintains the legendary descents that already exists. Expect high-alpine flow, steep rooty tech, and naturally carved switchbacks through deep and loamy forests.
If you’re chasing that next unforgettable descent, riding under Mont Blanc on a Chamonix mountain bike tour is as wild and rewarding as it gets.
