Pont de la Flée Loop - Mountain Bike Route No. 57

Mountain bike trail No. 57, the Pont de la Flée Loop, is a varied route that winds through both forest and built-up areas. This loop offers a nice balance between gradual climbs and fun descents, making it ideal for mountain bikers seeking nature and thrills.

The Pont de la Flée Loop (Route No. 57) is a mountain bike trail offering a mix of forest trails and roads near the village of Cordon and the town of Sallanches.

The gradual climb allows you to take in the beauty of the village of Cordon from its hillsides before reaching the Pont de la Flée, located in the heart of the forest.

The descent from the heights of Sallanches is perfect for thrill-seekers! But be warned: the climb back up through the Bois de Fessy will put your thighs to the test and require some serious physical effort!

Please note that the duration of the loop will vary depending on the type of bike you’re riding:

• On a mountain bike, the loop takes 1 hour and 45 minutes
• On an e-MTB (electric mountain bike), the loop takes 1 hour and 10 minutes
• On an e-bike (electric hybrid bike), the loop takes 1 hour and 30 minutes

The trail is marked with beige signs featuring orange triangles: the color inside the triangles indicates the difficulty level of the trail.
