:: Die & Digne ::

In May we combine 2 mythical French spots "Die" and "Digne-les-bains"

aka the best trails in France for spring riding.

The region is a unique blend of Alps & Provence:

high Alpine peaks & wide valleys

cosy villages & abandoned no-man's-land

loam fest in the woods & rocky gardens in the sun

lavender, fruit trees, wild life like chamois, local bar under the plane trees

and even skinny ridgelines on the black earth trails

...

this trip combines it all!

The trip exists out of 2 parts:

the first days we ride around the village of "Die"

for the second part we move to "Digne-les-Bains"

"Die" is known in France as the capital of flow trails.

Think of high speed, super flowy singletracks spiced up with roots and balconies.

"Digne-les-Bains" is world reknown for its black earth trails,

but also the B-lines are like a cherry on the cake.

During the transfer day we make a stop in the trail jungle of the "chemin du soleil".

Not internationnally known, but a pure bliss for the adventurous mountainbiker.

Daily shuttle uplifts bring in more descending pleasure.

Also luggage is transported, so you can ride light.

Just like our "AM-EN ride heaven" trips we mix up allmountain and enduro riding.

For bikers looking for adventurous touring to ride those epic trails

and who can enjoy a day of uplift shuttles.

:: Sunday ::

Arrivals & warm-up at Die

During the afternoon we welcome all riders at our first base camp at Die. The real deal starts on Monday, but we already get out on the bikes for a first spin. A good to spin those stiff legs after a transfer day.

In the evening you get to know all details for the upcoming week, you'll meet all riders and we round up with a bike-check.

:: Monday ::

Die

The day starts with an uplift shuttle to Col de Rousset (+1200m without sweating). Once arrived at the highlands of the Vercors, we ride down one of many trails to the valley floor. One flow trail follows another, shortly interrupted with some root sections and challenging switchbacks.

We finish the day in the cosy city center of Die. Time to chill out with a fresh beer and charge up for the next day.

:: Thursday ::

Les terres noires - Black earth

“Digne-les-Bains” has become the bikers paradise with its black earth trails. You can see them everywhere in bike magazines and shredits from pro bikers.

Today we spend a whole day on this black stuff, these trails are just on another level. We play around with our bikes and the technical challenges keeps the adrenaline going. A day to remember!

:: Friday ::

B-lines

Today we finish with the lesser known B-lines in this place, there's way more to Digne than it's black earth trails!
The hills become Alps and we need to push our bikes... and it's totally worth it! Start in the Alpine pastures, ride rocky rollercoaster and red earth to the infamous Donkey Darko.
