Riding in the legendary area of Chamonix under the 'Lord of the Alps', the Mont Blanc, is a dream destination for many mountain bikers. We will realize this dream by crossing the valley with the aid of the lift at Le Tour via Flegere, providing our descent into the valley of Vallorcine on a beautiful singletrack which slaloms under the larch trees.
With this exceptional landscape and the varying trails, it will satisfy the hungriest of mountain bike riders! Some time after the days ride can be spent visiting Chamonix to absorb the historic alpine mountain ambiance and gaze up at the Mont Blanc as you meander through the streets or sit and drink a well deserved beer, you can't help but be in awe.

Starting from La Clusaz village, we warm up gently with an easy climb to Lac des Confins, we will ride 800m above the valleys of La Clusaz and the Grand Bornand on the top of Danay a small flat summit splitting the valleys. The first epic technical singletrack descent will improve your skills and test your nerves... to tackle the rest of the day! The crossing of the plateau of Beauregard is 'the cherry on top of the icing on the cake !'

DAY 7 (saturday)

The last days ride will be finished with the unforgetable downhill of La Patton. Hang onto your helmet and check your brakes, what is coming is steep... Steps, tight turns, rocks, roots... in fact, pretty much everything is on the menu for this final descent !! (escape route possible!!!)
