Where to Mountain Bike in the Alps for Views

Realistically you can’t pick a bad alpine resort for beautiful views – they’re all lovely! We think there’s a particularly stunning mountain biking destination above Samoens however which is well worth a visit. It’s convenient – you can hop on lifts all the way up to the top above the neighbouring resort of Flaine, and once you step off the lift the most dramatic mountain panorama opens up in front of you, including Mont Blanc. From here, let gravity help you out; it’s downhill all the way back down to Samoens.
