Description of the route

Les Écureuils is THE Bikepark’s training track. This is where it all starts. The track is ultra-safe, wide and clean, perfect for getting to grips with the slope without getting scared.

The course winds its way up the entire side of Les Chavannes. It’s a mix of open mountain pastures and cooler forest sections. It’s long, it’s fluid, and it’s ideal for working on your basic position and braking on terrain that’s forgiving of mistakes.

It’s a stress-free run for warming up in the morning or ending the day in chill-out mode with the whole team.

Expert advice

Tip: Take advantage of the length of the run to work on your braking endurance. Don’t get tight on the levers! Use the flats to relax your hands and forearms. It’s also the perfect track to test yourself on your first turns with a bit of angle before moving on to the blues like the Freewheel.
