Flowing trails, breathtaking mountain panoramas and challenging climbs: Switzerland is a true mountain biking paradise. Throughout the country, you’ll find everything from ambitious alpine Tours for seasoned mountain bikers to gentle valley routes for beginners. Of course, this is Switzerland, so it’s difficult to avoid elevation gain entirely. While the routes around lakes and along rivers are relatively flat, gently hilly landscapes characterise the central plateau. In the south, the Alps provide pure singletrack enjoyment and technical challenges.

In this Collection, we’ve put together 13 exciting Tours all of which start at a different Thömus store. Our outlets are spread right across the country so, taken as a whole, the Tours provide a wonderfully varied perspective of our beautiful country.

You'll master demanding climbs over passes and up to the finest trail areas, from which you'll enjoy breathtaking views of the Alps. You’ll ride the most beautiful flow trails, zoom over rooty and rocky sections and fly past rushing rivers and the largest lakes in Switzerland. Every Tour has moments where you’ll want to get off the saddle, pause and take in your awesome surroundings.

If you’re looking for a new road bike or if your current bike is in need of a service, Thömus has everything you need. As Switzerland’s leading specialist retailer, we offer the largest selection of bikes, with bicycles, clothing and accessories from over 15 top brands. Our service is personalised too, as all our branches offer Smartfit Bodyscan – a modern body measurement instrument that enables us to tailor your bike to your requirements.

Visit us, get on the pedals and dive into your next bike adventure!
