I assume you mean La Clusaz? Can't help about the bike park, last rode there I think 13 years ago! Vee brakes all over the shop, though I was on a full-sus (for the first time, an iDrive).

My main memory is doing 1000m+ of vertical ascent in one go in the heat, then passing out when I stopped at the top ๐Ÿ˜€

That and an old french dude on a donkey yelling at me that bikes were crap and I should get a donkey as they don't get punctures (as I walked back to the chalet with a flat).

I went about 4 years ago and there was only really 2 DH runs although they were great fun. Some very good riding in the resort that is more lift assisted XC.

I'd go again but it didn't have the amount of runs that say Morzine does but its a lot quieter.

I realise it's small but it's on the way between Deux alpes and the pds and it open in June. Guess I will give it a go, cheers.

If you've got a day and its nearly on the way to where you're going, Id say go. Play on the 2 main DH runs. Top half of the red I really liked, 'even' on a 5" FS
The black I liked too, though I didn'tquite fit trying the north shore option on the black DH.

If it is wet, some of the wooden bridges are VERY slippy.
