Endless natural trails await you on this 5* rated, small group women’s guided mountain biking holiday in the undiscovered French Pyrenees
If you’re an enthusiastic mountain biker whose fitness and endurance maybe outweighs their technical ability then this mountain biking holiday is right up your street.
In a relaxed and highly supportive, fun atmosphere, like-minded women will forge new friendships and learn new skills. You’re sure to return home a more competent and confident mountain biker with new MTB buddies with whom to ride back home.
What’s the mountain biking like in the Pyrenees?
The riding will appeal to any regular mountain biker who loves riding natural trails. The mountain biking in the Luchon area of the French Pyrenees is varied and challenging, the scenery breath-takingly beautiful and the trails quiet and off the beaten track.
There is an endless variety of trails here, some fast and flowy, others rocky and technical, with long fireroad ascents that will challenge your endurance to off-camber singletrack that will test your balance and your nerve.
Those mountain bikers who have the confidence and ability will be able to challenge their skills on the steeper more technical terrain whilst those seeking an easier ride will have route options to suit them.
Is this guided women’s MTB holiday for me?
If you are a regular XC mountain biker who has a reasonable level of fitness and a good ‘can do’ attitude then this is the perfect opportunity to improve your form, skills and confidence.
You will be out on the trails typically from 10am to 4pm on the 5 days that you will be riding. But the pace will be up to you. You are on holiday after all!
Skills coaching is provided as a matter of routine by your professionally qualified guide. Whether it’s your bike set up, body position or riding technique that is letting you down, you’ll return home equipped with some hot tips that will help you take your riding to the next level.

Adventure Reviews
Super mtb trip to the Pyrenees. Great town (Luchon), wonderful varied days out with our guide Ian, bit of mtb coaching thrown in to help tackle a few narly, steep sections and get us out of our comfort zone (in a good way)! Our food at Le Lutin each evening was superb, Russ is a fantastic chef! Weather was beautiful, scenery spectacular and transfers to Luchon timely and easy.
A super week mountain biking in Luchon with Adventure Creators!
Lovely trails, even lovier food and a great group of ladies to enjoy it with! Ian (the guide) showed us some cracking descents and climbs!
The rainy first day made us appreciate the lovely autumn sunshine for the rest of the week!
Had a fabulous week away mountain biking in Luchon with the Adventure Creators. Lovely weather, cracking trails and a great bunch of ladies to enjoy it with. The guiding, coaching and general bike faffing from Ian was excellent. The accommodation was comfortable and welcoming and Russ’s food was out of this world! Highly recommend
