Mountain Biking - Bikepark Alpe d'Huez

Alpe d'Huez boasts an extensive mountain bike park with over 250 km of marked trails, including cross-country (XC), enduro, and downhill (DH) tracks. Lifts like the DMC 1 & 2, Marmottes 1, and Signal operate in summer to provide access to higher trails. The resort hosts major MTB events like the Megavalanche and the Enduro Series. Trails range from easy green runs suitable for families (e.g., 'Chemin des Lacs') to extremely challenging black DH runs with jumps, drops, and technical sections (e.g., 'Poutran DH'). Bike rentals and guiding services are widely available. The park typically operates from late June to early September, weather permitting.
