Chamonix's popularity in the mountain biking community has taken off in the last few years. Thanks to its different and varied terrain suitable for all levels.

For those interested in a relaxing ride with a few challenges it is the perfect place to ride. You can cycle alongside the river L'Arve passing through the small villages that make up the Chamonix valley, such as Le Gailland, Le praz, Argentiere, Mont Roc and Le Tour.

Those seeking a challenge, the best riding can be found from the access provided by the telecabines (cable cars) operating at the five main areas namely: Les houches, Le Brevent and Flegere, Le Tour and Les Grand Montets. These easily accessible trails offer intermediate and experienced riders a wide variety of mountain biking route options and long descents.
