IMPORTANT STUFF

The weather has to be the single most important consideration before setting out into the mountains around Morzine. For an up to date look at what our weather is doing, click on the link above.

Second to the weather you need to know that you're well covered in case of an accident while riding your bike. Get some good travel insurance as soon as you book your holiday.

MOUNTAIN BIKING RELATED LINKS

Excellent link to one of the leading bike retailers in the UK based in The Lake District.

If it’s information you require on a road or mountain bike to suit your style, hire or servicing, where to ride, and offering possibly the best male and female clothing section in Cumbria, Andy and his team will be more than happy to help, they can even recommend where to stay and eat!

Singletrack magazine has to be one of the best mountain bike mags around. You may not find it on the shelves of your local news agent but it's widely available through good bike shops.

Need a bike for your kids? Look at Isla Bikes - well thought out bikes for kids, not too heavy and with appropriately sized parts. Since we bought one of their bikes for our son Jacques we know plenty of others who've been so impressed they've bought their kids one too!

Jacques' bike has long since however passed on to his sisters and to allow him to blend into the crowd with his French mates a bit more we thought he should have a French bike (and also support the Morzine sponsorship deal a bit). His Lapierre Kid 20 lite is a pretty cool looking kids bike and works really well for the sort of riding he can do out here.

HOLIDAY LINKS

Strange as it may seem we'd like to link to a few other holiday companies. We concentrate our efforts on making our holidays in Morzine the best they can be so we don't operate anywhere else. There are however many other excellent destinations for mountain biking. Also, we're not a winter ski company that does mountain biking as something to fill the summer months but there's lots of fun to be had in Morzine in the winter.

Our Hotel Bel'Alpe offers a great place to stay in the winter. Its central location, just 5 - 10 mins even in ski boots to either of the lifts out of town, makes it ideal for those looking for an easy holiday. It's close to the town centre and all the facilities that offers such as ski schools and childcare. Contact us for full details.

Alptitude offer some excellent chalets and apartments for self catering winter holidays in Morzine - just make sure you get in early.

 
For quality fully catered ski holidays in Morzine look at Snowline who operate chalets Berger during the winter months.
