Vallnord Bike Park BASiC

If you want to visit the famous, incredible, huge Bike Park at Vallnord everyone knows there’s no better or cheaper way to do it than with this new BASiC option, which strips away the posh accomodation and gives you the cheapest possible, fully organised and supported trip imaginable! These prices are INCLUSIVE of lift passes, airport transfers and breakfasts too – aswell as accomodation, of course….

We are the Official Holiday Partner to Vallnord, which means that we are able to offer you a fantastic package INCLUDING budget accommodation, airport transfers and lift passes at a far, far cheaper rate than you could get by booking directly! Don’t want budget accomodation? Check out our standard 4* holiday, which is only slightly more expensive but with a very plush hotel…

Arriving into Barcelona airport you meet the scheduled transfer bus which takes you direct to the door of your simple, family-run hotel in the the busy town of La Massana. This is Andorra’s most popular and best positioned summer town, situated just a few minutes outside the capital city, amidst towering tree lined mountains, directly at the foot of Vallnord Bike Park itself.

There’s great progression to be had by exploring the trails here – there are some great introductory singletrack trails to get you into the feel of the super-dusty surfaces. These prepare you perfectly to step up to trails like the rocky blue of “Skippy” which ploughs down the mountain from the midstation at high speed. Then there are trails such as Corpablanca; a tough, steep, twisting blue trail peppered with rocks, drop offs and even a mini road gap!

There’s a lot to satisfy more experienced riders of course: these are big mountains after all! From the peak at 2358m you have two amazing red trails: Cubil – which is a fast, flowing berm and tabletop infested run through dazzling sunlit meadows, or you can hook into the full Maxiavalanche descent right back to town…which grows more difficult the lower you drop down towards town – with the final few kilometres being a super-tough black graded tech fest of natural singletrack. If that’s not enough there are two north shore “Wood Parks” which are significantly different to one another – one being easier, the other being somewhat, well..nuts, quite frankly!

Finally, if you really want a challenge you can head onto the super-tough “Project One”, which mixes super tough natural trails with enormous rock drops, skinnies and more. And of course, we haven’t even mentioned the fearsome World Cup/ World Championship DH trail…2014 World Cup Series Winner and World Champ Manon Carpenter recently told us in person that it’s her favourite place in the World to ride, and we chatted to Rachel Atherton on the gondola in 2015 who told us she absolutely loves coming back to Vallnord!

When you stay with us in the heart of La Massana you get an incredible deal, only possible due to our status as Vallnord’s Official Holiday Partner. We’re calling them Morzine Busting Prices” because the accommodation, transfer and lift pass packages we have designed blow a lot of traditional holiday in the Alps out of the water!

It’s due to our special status that we get silly prices on things, and we pass these savings onto you. Our total price for our little budget hotel, INCLUDING Airport Transfers, Lift Passes and Breakfasts is far less than anything you’d be able to put together on your own – it’s stupidly cheap, frankly! This gives you a really traditional, characterful family-run hotel, right in the centre of town next to the lift station, and you will have one of the best located post-ride bars downstairs – it is a great place to chill after returning from the trails! In addition to the bar the hotel has a restaurant, simple but clean rooms, a basic but secure bike store and a very very tradtional feel throughout. Almost everyone who comes to Vallnord with us comes back the following year…
