We’re thrilled to share our exciting action plan for upgrading our mountain bike trails, creating an unforgettable experience for all fans of this wonderful sport. In 2024, our team is committed to transforming our existing trails and making your experience even more thrilling!

Highlights of our Action Plan:

• Rehabilitation of Existing Trails:
  • We’ll revitalize every turn, every jump, to ensure maximum fluidity and unparalleled thrills. Qualified professionals will work to improve trail conditions and safety.

• Déchainé Trail – A Renewed Experience:
  • The popular Déchainé Trail will be the crown jewel of our improvements. We’ll be making adjustments to maximize downhill enjoyment while preserving the natural environment.

• Installation of Bike Adapters on the Blue Chairlift:
  • To facilitate access for mountain bike enthusiasts, we will be installing bike adapters on our blue chairlift. Chairlift = more downhill.

• New Progression Area:
  • Introducing a dedicated area for beginners and intermediate enthusiasts with green and blue trails. Progression modules for jumps and drops will be added to hone your skills.

• Easy Climb and Complete Cross-Country Circuit:

  • For those who prefer to climb the peaks, we’ll build an easier climb while creating a complete cross-country circuit. Venture into the heights at your own pace.

We understand that the safety of our users is a top priority. Rest assured that our employees have taken first-aid and 102 bike mechanics courses to ensure a safe and rewarding experience.

What’s more, our terrain is covered by an excellent cellular network infrastructure, ensuring smooth communication at all times. To further enhance safety, bike patrollers are on site to respond quickly to any need.

Should the need arise, rest easy knowing that Wakefield Hospital is in the immediate vicinity, ensuring rapid access to medical care should the need arise.
