Enduro descent Grand Bois de Joux
IGN cards
Description
From Passy Plaine-Joux, descend directly into the valley, passing the splendid Lac Vert and following trails that are both technical and fun.
The descent begins slowly towards Lac Vert on the first, generally well-trodden path. Please take care.
Continue along the old Route du Lac Vert towards the Plateau d'Assy.
Before the Nant Bordon footbridge, turn left into the most challenging part of the route.
Single tracks and curves await you - it's up to you!
Turn right at the first junction after the first four bends, then quickly left again to start the descent all over again!
At the bottom of this section, cross the road to Servoz and continue towards Joux and then Chedde.
Meet up near the train station to take the Y 85 line back to Passy Plaine-Joux with your bike.
