The trail character is predominantly natural alpine — granite and limestone mixed substrate, dense conifer and beech forest in the lower sectors, open pasture above 1,600m, and spectacular open terrain near the gondola summit with unobstructed Mont Blanc views.
Trail Highlights at Combloux Bike Park
'Panorama Mont Blanc' (Blue, 9 km): The park's most recommended trail for first-time visitors — a flowing mid-mountain traverse that maximises views while staying accessible to intermediate riders. The trail was redesigned in 2023 with improved drainage and new bermed corner sections.
'Descente des Alpes' (Red, 11 km): Full gondola descent from summit to village — the park's longest and most varied trail. Technical root sections in the forest below 1,400m; flowing pasture trail above.
'Les Sources' (Green, 4 km): Lower forest loop near the gondola base. Wide, smooth surface, ideal for children and beginner bike park riders.
Évasion Mont Blanc Linked Pass
The Évasion Mont Blanc linked pass is the key to unlocking the full potential of mountain biking in the Combloux area. The pass covers gondolas at Combloux, Megève, Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, and Saint-Nicolas-de-Véroce — 5 resort gondolas in total, giving access to 150+ km of trail across the Mont Blanc massif.
Linked pass day price: approximately €38–48 per adult in 2025. Compared to a Combloux-only pass (approximately €28–33), the linked pass is highly recommended for riders spending more than one day in the area — the additional trail variety justifies the small extra cost.
Combining Combloux with Chamonix Mountain Biking
Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, just 25 km from Combloux, has its own excellent mountain biking network — distinct from the Évasion Mont Blanc area and accessed via the Chamonix valley gondolas. A week based in Combloux can productively combine days at the Combloux/Évasion network with days in Chamonix's more serious, higher-altitude terrain.
Note: Chamonix's upper trails involve glacial terrain and require specific mountain awareness. Stick to the marked Chamonix Bike Park trails unless riding with an experienced local guide.
Sustainability at Combloux Bike Park
The Évasion Mont Blanc area has implemented a linked sustainability strategy — all member resorts commit to reducing the environmental footprint of their summer operations. This includes: sustainable trail construction standards, wildlife corridor preservation above 1,800m, and visitor education on the Mont Blanc ecosystem.
Combloux's Village de Caractère designation adds a layer of village-level environmental commitment. Hotels signed to this charter are identifiable on the impt.io platform (https://app.impt.io/find-hotel-input).
