It’s up to you to choose between the more family-friendly Bresse à VTT, for easy outings with little ascent, or the Revermont, where you can tackle the mountains!

Mountains or Bresse hedgerows?

In the foothills of the Jura mountains, the Revermont region offers over 660 km of playground for mountain bikers. Trails criss-cross sunny slopes through forests, meadows, dry grasslands and hillsides. If you’re in the mood for a sportier route, start at Mount Myon and ride across the territory. You can also stop off at Treffort and admire the breathtaking views over the Mâconnais, the Monts du Lyonnais, the Jura and the Alps.

In the heart of the Bresse region, the mountain bike base is located around the La Plaine Tonique leisure park, a 140-hectare site with five interconnected lakes. Easy, family-friendly trails let you discover all the charm of Bresse. An invitation to discover and encounter the Bresse bocage, with an in-depth exploration of rural paths. Bresse architecture, peaceful hamlets, ponds and rivers: Bresse offers a patchwork of typical landscapes.
