Patrik Gerbaz

I've always been naturally sporty. A lover of the mountains and deeply in love with Valle d'Aosta, where I was born and raised. I ventured into the world of mountain biking in the mid-90s, eventually obtaining a diploma as a Mountain Biking Instructor from the Italian Cycling Federation (F.C.I.) and a regional certification as a Mountain Biking Guide and Off-road Cycling Instructor. Passionate about off-road trails, I know most of the 5000 km of trails in Valle d'Aosta—a true Alpine paradise accessible to all, beginners and experts alike. My mission? To promote outdoor sports activities on mountain bikes, while ensuring complete safety.
