Le Pleney - Le Roots - Red
Although Le Pleney is known better for its steep secret tracks its relatively new red track is certainly up there with the best tracks in Morzine. Speed is your friend on this track, with long straights and big banked corners the track allows for speed to be carried throughout the track. Unfortunately due to maintenance the very bottom section of this track wasn't recorded but this gives a great idea as to what you can expect.
Chatel - People - Blue
A great track for beginners with berms as big as walls this track meanders down the side of the hill allowing you to practice key cornering skills and get high on the entrance to the berms. Situated just to the left of the mid station in Chatel and numbered blue 10 this trail will get you pumped for a big day sending jumps.
Chatel - People - Blue
People can be found just off the mid station in Chatel. It is a great track for beginners to practice their cornering with long and high berms the whole way down it is quite confidence inspiring. The track does suffer from braking bumps due to the amount of traffic it gets so best to ride this earlier in your holiday when your arms are fresh.
Chatel - Vink Line - Blue
The latest creation from the madman that is Nico Vink. Having spent many years competing at the Chatel mountain style Nico got invited to let his imagination go wild on the main hillside of Chatel. Its safe to say he didn't hang around building one of the most iconic tracks in the resort and some of the biggest jumps in Le Portes du Soleil, its hard to comprehend how this monster is a blue.
Les Lindarets - Chesery - Blue
Often missed out as a main track but a good one for beginners who want to work on their cornering and jumps. Although finishing high on the mountain there is plenty of potential for development in the future. This trails links Chatel back to Morzine via the Les Lindarets valley. A fun trail with a savage black called Toboggan at the end of it if the fire road is to tame, it is good fun but serious so be careful.
Les Crosets - Le Grand Coche - Black
Otherwise known as Swiss national this track is not one for the faint-hearted and is Black rated for a reason. With stunning views and shear drops on the side of the track you must negotiate tight turns and rocks to get past the top section. Although there are few jumps in the track the ones that are there are high speed and require good bike control to complete.
Champery - World Cup Track - Black
No introduction needed. Host to Danny Harts jaw dropping run in the 2011 World Champs this track demands respect from the off. Not to be ridden in the wet without the surname Hart, this track is Ultra steep with tight technical turns and awkward drops this track is not for beginners. Dare you test your skills against this beast?
