Description

This is the first route taken by the Faction Skis team while shooting for the film: Zermatt to Verbier.

The Faction Collective follow in the tracks of the mythic 'Patrouille des Glaciers' race, across the high alpine traverse linking Zermatt to Verbier.

Along the way, this team of freeriders discover a unique alpine history and ski some of the most impressive peaks in the Alps. *Please note this route is a vague estimate (not GPS upload) and therefore should not be used singularly to plan your trip.

**Please also note that I've added just added two loops of Mont Blanc de Cheilon, though we skied every aspect of it (except for the true North Face) - there's a lot to do there! Starring: Sam Anthamatten, Elisabeth Gerritzen, Yann Rausis, Anna Smoothy.

Featuring: Colonel EMG Daniel Jolliet & Jean-Marc Farquet. You can view the full film for free here: https://factionskis.com/blogs/news/zermatt-to-verbier-4k
