How the activity works
The trip begins with a welcome from your guide, who will kit you out and explain the equipment as well as the basics of enduro mountain biking.
You will then take a shuttle to the summit of Semnoz, allowing you to enjoy the descent to the full without the effort of the climb. Once at the top, you’ll be treated to an exceptional panorama of the Alps and Mont Blanc – the perfect way to start the experience.
The descent is then gradual, with regular breaks to fine-tune technical advice, catch your breath and enjoy the natural surroundings. You’ll ride across different types of terrain: forest trails, more technical sections or rolling sections, always tailored to the group’s level.
