During summer all thoughts in Chatel turn to mountain biking. The village converts its ski lifts and buses to carry mountain bikes, and teams of specially trained staff are employed to maintain the miles of well kept tracks and trails. The staff patrol the area on bikes and are on hand to help and advise riders.
Châtel is fast becoming known for its large number of well kept downhill tracks, and the fact that it is one of the most challenging areas in the Portes du Soleil! The downhill world cup is regularly held here, along with big events such as the Chatel mountain style, and the Passportes du Soleil.
Pre la Joux is the main starting point and it's lifts give access to the many DH tracks, bike parks, and North Shore areas, as well as to the rest of the Portes du Soleil area. From here you can take half or full day
XC trips to Switzerland, Morgins, Avoriaz, Morzine, or Les Gets along some of the most scenic natural singletrack imaginable...
The possibilities really are endless
And at the end of your ride Pre la Joux have a free bike wash area to clean off your bikes.
