Mountain Biking at La Giettaz

La Giettaz is part of the Val d'Arly Mont Blanc's 30-circuit domain, which offers a fabulous a range of green, blue, red and black runs and makes the area accessible to serious riders as well as families on a fun day out.  In total, there are almost 300km of maintained and signposted trails for you to follow, many of which use the area's ski lifts for easy access to the higher slopes.

Trail maps are available from Tourist Offices throughout the Val d'Arly, including La Giettaz.  Click here to download a PDF map of the La Giettaz-Portes du Mont Blanc sector.

More trails, and more lifts to take you up the mountain, are available around La Clusaz, 15 minutes' drive from the Chalet.

You can hire equipment locally, or we have storage areas on site if you wish to bring your own gear.  We are also delighted to welcome group bookings to the chalet.
