Activity description

Going downhill skiing at full speed in the mountains in the winter is absolutely thrilling, right? So why not enjoy these sensations in the summer with crazy mountain biking rides!?

As a certified instructor, Romain offers you all kinds of excursions. From the simplest downhill rides to technical enduro day trips! Whatever discipline you prefer, you are sure to find an itinerary suited to your level and expectations in the magnificent landscapes of Chamonix!

All Mountain
You will look into the basics of the mountain bike adjustment, pedaling techniques, different positions depending on the terrain and of course braking, speed management... You will get to chose between easy tours and fast descent tracks.

Itineraries are varied from Plaine des Praz Plain in Chamonix to Petits Balcons Nord/Sud.

Enduro
It is certainly the most practiced mountain biking activity in the valley. You will use the infrastructures (trains and ski lifts) to reach the slopes. You pedal a little (sometimes a lot) to get to the summits and access long and awesome rides down.

Many spots are to be discovered in Le Tour, Les Houches, Courmayeur...

Downhill & Freeride
Practice on the slopes or on hiking trails, using the ski lifts to access the descents.

Itineraries vary between Brévent, Les Houches, Le Tour, Pila (Italy), Verbier (Switzerland), Les Saisies, Les Portes du Soleil.

Please remember you'll need a DH mountain bike or very efficient enduro bike!
