2-wheel adventure
Our quest for adrenaline leads us the next day to the unique experience of a mountain bike ride, the sporting activity par excellence combining thrills, surpassing oneself and love of nature ... on one of the 23 circuits of the FFC MTB site of the territory.
We prepare the “mount”, we pamper it, we scrutinize it from the tires to the handlebars before getting into the saddle…
We equip ourselves, we harness each other, we “check” everything before leaving!
First pedal stroke and off you go for the adventure. The great outdoors, the climb sometimes gently sometimes less, the steep passages, it pulls a little on the calves, it shakes the arms but we hold the handles firmly ...
What sensations!
And then before arriving at the top of the hill we catch our breath, cut off by the ascent but also by the beauty of the landscapes that stretch out before our astonished eyes ...
The Vernazobre valley and the Grage mountains in the background. We get back in the saddle for the descent and we pick up speed, at full speed we hurtle down the slope that leads to the starting point.
Pure pleasure
The mountain bike site consists of 23 circuits with 4 levels of difficulty, download the detailed map.
