The Lac Blanc Bike Park, in the heart of the Vosges, is recognized as one of the best bike parks in France and the top one in the Grand Est. If you love downhill mountain biking (DH), you won’t be disappointed here!
Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, there are trails suited to your level, ranging from fast and technical descents to more accessible routes, perfect for getting acquainted with the terrain. Whether you prefer freeride or cross-country, each descent promises a thrilling experience in a safe environment supervised by professionals.
The trails are well-maintained (even pampered) by the Bike Patrol crew: the shapers know their playground inside and out and continuously work on the trails throughout the season. You’re sure to cross paths with them! They also ensure the safety of all riders and can provide tips on routes and ways to improve your descents.
