    If you’re not a downhill mountain biker, you’d be better off choosing another playground: the Bel’velec trails offer mountain bikers the chance to discover the landscape and panoramic views of the Grésivaudan valley and the Belledonne massif, on a classic mountain bike for the purists, or on an electrically-assisted mountain bike for the energy-savvy.

    There are several possible starting points for the Espace Bel’velec itineraries.

    This area allows you to discover the surrounding villages, their flora and fauna, as you wind your way through the heart of the mountain. And who knows, maybe you’ll come across a surprising encounter along the way!
