The Wood is a long descent that begins with a wide bike park section that then narrows as you enter the forest. The part in the forest offers a simpler shape but appreciated for its beauty and its playful side.

Reception
To keep the mountains a pleasure, choose an activity suited to your level of experience and physical ability. Check the weather forecast and seek advice from qualified professionals, and inform someone of your itinerary. Make sure you're properly equipped: helmets are compulsory, and we strongly advise you to wear kneepads, elbow pads, back protection and gloves. In your rucksack, take a water bottle and snacks to keep your energy levels up, and a survival blanket or warm clothing. Protect yourself from the sun with sunscreen and sunglasses. Don't forget binoculars to add a touch of observation to your adventure.
For your dog's safety, we do not recommend mountain biking.
