Tour du Mont-Fort - Pro rider

MTB & E-bike

The Pro Rider version of the Tour of the Mont-Fort is aimed at cross-country mountain bike enthusiasts, those who are not afraid of taking on the mountain with the strength of their calf muscles.

With this in mind, the only time they break the rules is on the part between Tortin and the Col des Gentianes where the cable car is boarded as it is the only way to get to the other side of the mountain. On arrival at the Col des Gentianes, take the opportunity to do a return cable car ride without your bike to the summit of the Mont-Fort to admire the view.

From the sports centre in Haute-Nendaz, set off towards la Péroua and Siviez.

At the entrance to Siviez, take the small track that runs uphill opposite the restaurant «Les Bergers» and follow it until you reach the Tortin-Col des Gentianes cable car departure station. You take the cable car to reach the pass. On arrival, take the only track which runs downhill towards Verbier, passing by la Chaux and les Ruinettes.

After your descent towards Verbier, ride uphill to the top of the Savoleyres gondola. Then follow the track along the ridge before taking the kickboard descent track off down to the left.

Follow the route de la Croix de Cœur until you reach La Tzoumaz. Then follow the red signposts to Drotsé and then back to Haute-Nendaz.
