    Mountain biking and e-mountain biking
    Beginner
    For those wishing to discover mountain biking, enduro, or "All Mountain" riding, and who have little or no experience mountain biking in the mountains. You want to learn the essential technical skills for both descending and climbing on rideable trails.
    Intermediate
    For occasional mountain bikers. You are comfortable shifting gears and modulating your braking, and you can clear obstacles by unweighting the bike. You will ride on 4x4 tracks that offer a gradual progression, though you may encounter the occasional steep section. Daily elevation gain is approximately 400 to 600 meters.
    Confirmed
    For mountain bikers who are already enthusiasts with some riding experience. You have mastered gear shifting and braking control, and are able to clear obstacles by unweighting the bike, as well as ride up or down short, steep sections. Ideal for riders looking to improve their descending skills on singletrack trails that are rarely very steep but sometimes technical (rocks, roots, etc.) without being exposed, featuring daily elevation gains of 600 to 1,000 meters.
    Advanced
    For mountain bikers who are already skilled descenders and confident in their technique. You are capable of navigating switchbacks, riding along off-camber trails without hesitation, controlling your braking, and clearing small obstacles (such as roots, rocks, and steps). The long, sustained descents—which increase in difficulty throughout the week—are sometimes steep, often technical, and occasionally exposed, though rarely dangerous. Expect daily elevation gains of between 800m and 1,400m.
    Expert
    For experts and experienced, regular riders. You are capable of navigating switchbacks and off-camber trails, controlling your braking, and clearing obstacles such as roots, rocks, and steps. The descents are long and sustained—often steep, technical, and sometimes exposed. You are looking to challenge yourself with daily elevation changes of 1,400 to 2,000 meters.

In a few words

The Via Vercors is a cycle path that allows you to explore the Vercors plateau, a landscape of pastures, cliffs, and majestic forests. The first section is flat with some gravel sections, while the second is a bit more challenging with some elevation changes and dirt tracks. This trip is ideal for those who want to start mountain biking or who want to try e-biking. This magnificent mountain region, located at an altitude of 1000m, is the gateway to the Alps. In the heart of the Vercors Regional Natural Park, you can enjoy splendid scenery along the route and discover authentic mountain villages. During your ride, don't hesitate to stop at farms to taste cheeses or stroll through markets to enjoy local products.

A wonderful discovery of the Vercors by electric mountain bike. Two days is a bit short, however, as three days were mentioned in the offer.

Classified as a mountain bike route, it could be considered a hybrid bike route, a bit too flat. Otherwise, the services were very good, the organization excellent, and the punctuality superb.

Customized stay based on the Vercors offer from Decathlon Travel. Excellent accommodation and dining conditions. The Vercors is particularly well-suited to mountain biking initiation and more challenging riding.
