Blue MTB trails
Easy trails for beginner mountain bikers and families to enjoy
There are blue downhill trails to choose from in 2 Alpes, on both sides of the valley.
Vallée Blanche side
Pied Moutet
Take a left from the top of the lift and descend on the trail that is is 4.5km long and drops -440m back to the bottom of the lift. It's an open, treeless route down, crossing a couple of north shore sections on the way, but nothing too skinny or technical.
The Jandri side
The Grand Nord
Starts from half way up the Jandri gondola. Be sure to get off here as if you're not comfortable riding red, rocky trails you'll not enjoy the route back from the glacier! This trail is a manageable 2km long and descends -360m. You join a connecting trail from here back to the top of green trail l'Ange which takes you back to the valley floor.
From the top of the Diable chair
Two choices: Diable or Lilith
Diable - is 5.3km long and descends -730m
Lilith - is slightly shorter at 4.5km, but also -730m.
Both trails meet half way down so you can try them out by doing laps of this lift. The trail turns into a green to get you back to the valley floor, with a nice easy run out.
Bike Patrollers trail
Further along the valley floor, more in the centre of resort this trail starts at the top of the village 1800 chairlift and is a nice, short 3km trail taking you down -390m. As you're descending you'll see the Crankworks area to your left.
Look for the unbroken blue DH lines on the map.
