Mountain biking in the Jura
Mountain biking in the Jura is one of the popular and widespread activities. In fact, the Jura is a first choice venue for those who love mountain biking. From the Loue valley to the crests of the Haut-Jura, passing through the Petite Montagne hills or the Grandvaux plateau, there are over a hundred circuits devoted to mountain biking in the Jura. They offer the opportunity for some to get a rush of adrenaline and for others to seek out chamois or viewpoints of the landscape.
Mountain biking in the Jura means 120 marked circuits, 2 sites and 1 mountain bike base officially recognised by the “Fédérations Nationales de Cyclisme et de Cyclotourisme” – national cycling federations. Mountain biking in the Jura also hosts internationally reputed events like “La Forestiere”, “la Tram’ Jurassienne”, “Les Voies du Sel”.
On the mountain biking sites and base you will find a plethora of circuits for all ability levels, documents and information boards set up at every key point and all you need to hire or repair your equipment.
Outings on a mountain bike in the Jura allow you to explore an authentic countryside made up of mountains, lakes (lake
Chalain and lake
Vouglans), and
waterfalls.
An untouched and powerful landscape, proud of its preserved nature, its history, its culture… So come and do some mountain biking in the Jura.
