This is a relatively easy conclusion to the Alpine Bike Trail. The last two stages lead down into the Rhône Valley along Route 68. Each stage includes longer sections that require a good level of fitness. Technically, there are no particularly difficult passages.

Arrival by train

Leave the car at home! For every cycling, biking, or hiking tour in Switzerland, each participant receives an SBB voucher worth CHF 10.–, which can be deducted from the train ticket price. This discount can be redeemed in the SBB online shop or via the SBB app.

For many trips, luggage drop-off and collection are handled at train station counters at the beginning and end of the journey – a convenient service to combine with train travel. If you have a GA travelcard, you can indicate this when booking, and the amount will be credited to your invoice.

If you don't use the voucher during your trip, you can redeem it later in the year. Unfortunately, retroactive refunds are not possible for administrative reasons.
