Yes, there are riders on that trail. The Rhone Valley is 2000 meters (6000+ feet) lower, an enormous drop with stunning relier. It feels like being in an airplane so far above the valley.

This was the last photo made before we just dropped into the valley - the Swiss CrissCross is finished, a huge success for everyone.

In the distance are the Alps where Italy, France and Switzerland come together

Day 7, Swiss CrissCross. As Jörg said, today is the dessert - and so it was. A superb day of real trail riding through Verbier and ending in Martigny, the end point of the Swiss CrissCross.

Swiss CrissCross is finished. All survived. Riding circles in Martigny’s Roman colosseum to celebrate. #SwissCross
