Morzine Mountain Biking
Morzine and the Portes du Soleil area has often been called the Mecca for mountain bikers. You will know why after your pilgrimage! The best of the best can find amazing, challenging trails and the novice can certainly enjoy a first outing on mountain trails. Downhill, Freeride, Cross Country...there is something for everyone here!
A mountain bike in French is a Velo Tout Terrain (VTT) meaning all terrain bike. You will often see VTT marked on trail signs around the resort.
There are 24 lifts open to mountain bikers giving access to about 650km of trails. There are currently 10 downhill courses and four bike parks to play in! If you are looking to see it all, think about visiting Morzine during the Pass'Portes du Soleil event. This is the famous MTB trek around France and Switzerland often held towards the end of June. There are 3 different circuits for participants (35, 50 and 75km) and lots of refreshments and entertainment. Not to be missed! Click here for more info!
One of the best known trails in Morzine starts from Le Pleney. This area is usually for more confirmed riders but does have trails rated between facile (easy) and difficile (difficult). This was a purpose built area and has an excellent 3.5km long, 560m descent. A great run but make sure to warm up a bit first!Portes du Soleil
