faQ

Yes. The 4-hour format is specially engineered for beginners, families, and kids from 6 years old. Routes are chosen strictly on smooth flow trails with gentle grades, avoiding intimidating drops or loose rock fields while keeping the pace fun and relaxed.

Yes. For kids aged 6 to 10 and parent-child duos visiting Finale for the first time, booking a private guide together with a dedicated private shuttle is the most effective setup. It eliminates tiring uphill pedaling entirely, allowing riders to focus 100% of their energy on safe, guided downhill flow trails.

Half-day tours concentrate on a single approachable area without long valley crossings. The most common zones are the flowing forest trails around Base NATO and Rollercoaster, or the panoramic, wide singletracks of the Le Manie plateau.

Yes. E-MTBs and analog MTBs work together seamlessly on this tour. The guide manages the ascent and descent speed to ensure the entire group stays together safely.

Yes. Every tour is booked exclusively for your private group (up to 8 riders per guide). You will never be combined with faster or external riders.
