a treat 👌

technically it's better

Orpierre is a tiny, pretty village at an altitude of 700 m with around 300 inhabitants in the middle of the cliffs. It has everything you need. A good starting point for hiking, cycling and climbing.

A very special place, not just for climbers. Pure easy living

Beautiful single with amazing views over the valley, perfect for MTB or gravel riding. I Highly recommend to avoid this segment when bike packing because it’s quite a hassle with lots of gear on the bike (I did manage to go through though).

the singletrack section is completely destroyed by the rains and the frequent passages of mountain bikes, the trail has been transformed into a monorail, sometimes very deep which prevents any control of the mountain bike, the pedals touch everywhere. Route taken on 01/26/24

An exhilarating section of switchback singletrack that descends down to near the lake's edge. It's continuously steep for a kilometre, but although not overly technical, it does require some good handling skills.

Blue trail, built, lots of berms but too narrow to ride them as such, so very slow and not very fluid. Unfortunately also heavily washed out by rain, gutters everywhere. The red trail, which starts 300m earlier, is nicer to drive.
