Cross-country mountain biking

Cross-country mountain biking is a mountain bike discipline that involves riding over rough, technical terrain, usually on narrow trails with steep climbs and descents. The discipline is often practiced on marked trails or wilderness courses.

Les Saisies offers 175 Km of Cross Country itineraries, 13 FFC-labeled courses for all levels, as well as a fun loop for learning the basics.
