[Closed] Morzine And Beyond....

downhill or xc?

a blend of both,.done all the dh stuff to death,last year did more footpaths with a few downhill runs,
some good stuff at champery,but was 1st time there,so maybe more to find.

I'm not an xc kinda guy but living in Morz and doing a lot of dh stuff - feel free to come for a ride out, more than meets the eye.

Loads of cheeky trails up above Champery,there's a few around Morgins too and the bikepark there gets better every year,we did a lot of off-piste stuff around Super Chatel and a bit around Pra la joux last year,I've got a couple of mates who live out there 8).
I reckon there's loads of the good stuff but quite easy to get lost or end up at a dead end / farmhouse,loads of guides out there if you want off the beaten track type trails.

yeah been to morzine a good few times now,but wanting to explore a bit further afield this time.

col de cou never done that,

dont get me wrong dh is where its at for me too,but like you say theres more than meets the eye.,

you live there permenantly Alexx?

yep Morgin is on the cards

Morgins has had a real good make over, super morz has 3 unofficial tracks opened this year - lots of sneeky tracks everywhere - alp dhuez, du alps, les alps, tignes, crans montana, pila, champery and quite a few lift tracks within an hour or pds.

depends what you want.. not sure what you've ridden / how much you want to scare yourself 😀

haha i want to be sacred 😀

done all the sneaky stuff on super morzine,obviously not the new stuff of this year.like that stuff there.

Champery DH run was quite scary but good,

all these alp dhuez, du alps, les alps, tignes, crans montana, pila never done!

well I'd certainly advise staying away from PDS and going to those places as you won't find anything ground breaking here.

in order of pref starting with the most epic riding id recommend:

Dhuez
Crans
Du Alps
Pila
Les Alps

Also worth visiting:

Verbier
Beaufortain
Pra Loup
Vars
Val di Sole
Les Carroz

got to be based in Morzine as its where were staying again.

just wanting some news stuff i havent done in the pds.of the off piste nature.

You been over to Morgins and Pre la Joux? Or are you saying you've done most of PdS region?

ah well I've got my car so I don't mind taking a couple of people on day trips out for petrol money contributions 🙂 email me if you want my contact details fella.

no havent dont that yet..need to explore beyond the dh stuff this time

Alexx you have been emailed 🙂

OO there is so much more stuff out there then, it's just about heading a little bti further out and not focusing on one or two runs all day (which occasionally I did find tempting).

yeah that sounds the buisness,did Champery side last year which was good,but i bet theres loads more over there to see too.

I loved Morgins last year - it was a refeshing change to ride dead quiet tracks that were very well maintained. And its rideable there and back from morzine.

and the old Swiss DH course off the back of Pointes des Moisettes, makes me feel sick thinking about it, the trails over there are so quiet.
