CERTAINLY ONE OF THE TOUGHEST MULTI-DAY ROUTES IN THE WORLD IN TOTAL AUTONOMY

Your ultimate challenge ... total autonomy

Departing from Aigle, you'll discover the sometimes little-known jewels of the Pre-Alps, the Alps and what might be called the Swiss High Alps, with passes topping the 2,000m mark. 

From valley to valley, The Ultimate 1000 will take you to the most beautiful sites each region has to offer. Filled with emotion, the landscapes you'll encounter and your fierce determination to achieve something truly great will be your fuel to reach Aigle and its Castle. A centuries-old finish line to crown an extraordinary feat.
