Everything about Biking!
Morzine is often referred to as the Mecca of European
mountain biking, a place that all true mountain bikers must make a pilgrimage
to during the summer months.
|
Located in the centre of the extensive Portes du Soleil lift system,
Morzine is ideally situated for exploring the vast network of trails that
criss-cross the surrounding alpine landscape.
|
Downhill
Tracks built specifically for the French Cup and Swiss National
Championships are an excellent addition to the already impressive selection
of Downhill courses found in the area.
|
Likewise the Vario bike park in Chatel and Kona bike
park in Les Gets are ideal for developing your skills, with North shore
drops, jumps and many other natural and man made challenges to play on.

Freeride
Mountain bikers who enjoy going both up and down hills
are also well catered for with unparalleled access to hundreds of miles
of trails leading from Morzine into Switzerland and the surrounding French
terrain.
Steep technical climbs, fast flowing singletrack and rocky paths are
the trademark of the area.
|
Chairlifts can be used to
eliminate the worst of the climbing should you wish to cover more ground.
The way marked Portes du Soliel loop is 40 miles of lift supported
fun with over 4000 metres of climbing easily achievable in a day.
Cross
Country
There are literally hundreds of miles of marked and unmarked trails in
the area. For those willing to put in a few pedal strokes uphill the rewards
are amazing with some of the most undisturbed trails and amazing views in
the world.

All Part of the Service
Back at the chalet there is secure bike storage and cleaning facilities
and at the end of the day there is always someone on hand to assist in any
bike surgery that is required.
|
In the unlikely event that something
is beyond our ability we can point you in the direction of several British
run bike shops that have fully equipped workshops and fairly priced spares.
These shops also have cross country and downhill hire bikes available should
you wish to experience a different type of riding.
|
Jolly Good has a fleet of large mini buses so transport to and from the
airport with your bike is not a problem no matter the size of your group.
