    This mountain bike loop from Vars Sainte-Catherine offers a varied and accessible itinerary, combining open landscapes, forests and alpine fauna.

    From the very first meters, the route follows a forest road that winds gently through hay meadows. This gradual ascent allows you to warm up while enjoying superb panoramic views over the Vars valley. As the climb progresses, the open spaces give way to a more alpine atmosphere. At the top of the trail, it's not unusual to spot a curious marmot watching out for visitors from its sunny rock.

    The descent heads due south, plunging into a forest with typical mountain scents: larches and hooked pines offer shade and coolness, contrasting with the more open exposure at the start. The trail becomes more playful, alternating bends and fast sections, always in a wild and unspoilt atmosphere.

    A perfect itinerary for discovering the diversity of landscapes around Vars, between alpine meadows, local fauna and fragrant undergrowth.
