Set off on the Valléenne, a mountain bike trail reserved for experienced riders. Starting from Le Bettex and passing through the Monts Rosset, the route takes you downhill before reaching the Parc Thermal, 700 metres below.

Natural drops, man-made jumps, a succession of banked and hairpin bends, and fast sections follow one after another against a spectacular mountain backdrop. The terrain alternates between woodland, clearings and dirt tracks, offering an experience that is both fluid and challenging. Classified as red and reserved for experienced cyclists, this route consists mainly of sections shared with pedestrians and farmers. Vigilance is therefore essential throughout the ride. Please also be mindful when passing near residential areas, so as to respect the peace and quiet of local residents. Designer: Bartas Architecture Contractor: RGTP Wearing a helmet and protective gear is strongly recommended; a mountain bike suitable for downhill riding with an appropriate braking system is required. A mountain biking guide is available from all bike hire companies in the valley as well as at the Tourist Information Offices.
