THE LARGEST MOUNTAIN BIKE TEST CENTRE IN THE WORLD!
With more than 2,000 mountain bikes, equipment and accessories on test, the Vélo Vert Festival offers a debauchery of gear that is unique in the world.
Another great thing about this huge test center is that it’s held at a time of year when the brands are presenting their new products. So you can ride new bikes, fresh off the market. XC, trail, enduro, DH, AE mountain bikes, children’s bikes, etc… Some models are traditionally open to the public for the first time at this time of year.

SPECIFIC TEST TRACKS
It’s all very well having a wealth of equipment available for festival-goers to test. But if the playing field isn’t up to scratch, there’s not much point. Can you see yourself testing bikes in a car park or running around in circles on a little artificial track between the stands?
The Vélo Vert Festival is ideally located in the heart of the Samoëns valley, so as soon as you borrow a bike or an accessory of any kind, you’ll find a suitable natural course right next to the show. In fact, for the occasion, we’ve prepared some totally specific routes, which meander around the bustle of the VVFestival. There are cross-country trails for all levels, AE mountain bike trails, enduro trails and downhill trails. The lifts will be open for the gravity trails.
