There are many MTB routes in Meribel: from the Bike Park to natural single-tracks

The Méribel bike park opens its doors to all those who want to cycle in the mountains in summer. From DH/EN trails (Bike Park) to natural routes (Trail, XC and e-bike).


In Meribel, a well-known ski resort, we find a bike park in summer, as often happens in many other places. At the level Downhill we find 11 routes, from the flowiest ones to the roughest ones: Bike Slope, Bellevue and Blue Line are perfect for beginners while the more daring riders will find what they are looking for on the 4 red, 2 black and double black trails.

Enduro Trails (E): 10 trails

Halfway between downhill MTB and cross-country, enduro mixes the natural with the manufactured. The most iconic routes are La Forêt de l'Altiport, 7,6 km with 195 m of total ascent and 470 m of total descent, Les Combes, 9 km with 840 m of total altitude difference, Top down, 19,7 km with 390 m of total ascent and 2.470 m of total descent, and Mergollaz, 9,1 km with 1.040 m of total altitude difference.

Cross-country (XC): 4 trails

The most widespread form of mountain biking and certainly the most accessible, the cross country, can be practiced both at a competitive level (it is the only Olympic MTB discipline) and at a family level. In Méribel you can learn, progress and experiment on routes ranging from a lake tour to the 2014 World Cup route!
Lac de Tueda: 3,2 km with 75 m of total altitude difference. Access from the Méribel Mottaret Tourist Office.

Written by

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
