Les Gets, The Place to Bike! The world capital of mountain biking in the heart of the Portes du Soleil

#MadeInlesGets Europe's leading Mountain Bike manufacturer

In Les Gets, you don’t just cycle, you ride the world capital of mountain biking! Located in the heart of the Portes du Soleil in Haute-Savoie, the Les Gets BikePark is the base camp for all passionate riders. From the technical roots of Mont Chéry to the shapely perms of Les Chavannes, riding in Les Gets is like immersing yourself in Europe’s largest mountain biking area.

With 128 km of marked trails and world-class facilities, the Les Gets Bike Park is much more than just a resort: it’s a technical benchmark accessible by 3 dedicated lifts (Express des Chavannes, Nauchets and Mont Chéry).

Europe's largest Bikepark Under your tyres

The Les Gets Bikepark has 128 km of marked trails maintained daily by a team of 8 Bike Patrols.

Part of the Portes du Soleil ski area, it offers an unrivalled playground:

  • 13 downhill runs (DHI): From accessible flow to challenging technical runs.
  • 1 Jump Park of 3 hectares: Wooden modules, footbridges and jump lines for all levels.
  • Mythical sectors: The technicality of Mont Chéry for experts, the flow and variety of Chavannes and Nauchets for all.
  • Special zones: 1 4-Cross track, 1 Coaching Track to help you progress, 1 Videopark and 1 Kid Zone for future champions.

Electric mountain bikes (VTTAE) 350 km of limitless exploration

Erasing the gradient and multiplying your runs. Les Gets is the ideal starting point for VTTAE with dedicated infrastructures:

  • 5 specific VTTAE trails in the resort (over 50 km of dedicated tracks).
  • 3 self-service recharging points so you never run out of watts.
  • Direct access to the 350km of signposted E-Bike routes in the Portes du Soleil.
  • Favourite itinerary: Tour of Mont Chéry, a 12.5km loop offering one of the most beautiful panoramas in the Alps.

Road & Gravel The giants of asphalt and earth

For lovers of tarmac and white roads, Les Gets is a strategic base camp:

  • Close to legendary mountain passes: the Col de Joux Plane (1691m), la Ramaz (1559m), l’Encrenaz (1433m) and the climb up to Avoriaz (1800m).
  • Gravel Spirit: dozens of kilometres of forest tracks and little-travelled mountain roads for total freedom.

BikePark map

The BikePark in Les Gets is spread over two sides of the resort: Le Mont Chéry and Les Chavannes, both of which offer specific riding styles to suit your tastes.

The Chavannes sector is synonymous with flow, jumps and shapely runs. This is the richest side of the bike park, with no fewer than … trails.

The Chéry sector is wilder, more natural and more technical. Here you’ll find the legendary UCI Mountain Bike World Cup route, where the greatest champions have set their wheels.
