Mountain Biking FAQs

What sort of bikes do you use?
All of our bikes are available locally and are maintained to a high standard and have front suspension for easier riding.  Full suspension bikes are available at a supplement. 

I want to bring my own bike.  Is that OK?
Sure.  What better place to use your own mountain bike than in the mountains.  Most airlines will carry bikes if they're boxed - check with the airline to see if there's a supplement.  Just let us know if you're bringing your own bike and we'll adjust the price of your package at the time of booking.  We'll also need to know so we can arrange your bike's transfer to resort!

Do I need experience on a mountain bike?
The simple answer is 'no'.  We'll show you all you need to know to enjoy the sport and the area.  It helps if you've recently ridden a bike, but it's not essential for one of our holidays as our guides will soon have you back in the saddle.

Is mountain biking different from 'normal' cycling?
Yes, it is and we'll show you how to get the most out of your bike.  If you go to spinning classes in a gym at home you'll find mountain biking a refreshing change and you'll be half-way there already.

I'd like to bring the family. How difficult are the rides?
This area has so many trails that it's not hard to find routes to suit all members of the family. If you have younger members we'll assess your level and adapt the rides accordingly. With younger children this means that a lot of the terrain will be relatively flat and include more places of interest but we do our best to make it as varied as possible for everyone's enjoyment
