Mountain biking on Reunion Island: there are over 300 kilometres of tracks, for unique adventures and experiences over one or several days. Whether you choose accessible tracks or the more difficult ones, whether it’s sunny or cold, the cycle tracks of the island all have one requirement: stability on two wheels!
For those who dream of becoming the next Julien Absalon, the downhill section from Maïdo known as the “Mégavalanche” has become a major hotspot for champions. If you would like an overall service, there is a shuttle bus available.
Accompanied by a professional, you’ll be provided with all the necessary equipment to be able to enjoy your experience!
For a family-friendly trip, to explore the 25 kilometres of spectacular coastline, there are several safe and marked cycle paths along the coast. Or maybe you’d prefer a recumbent bike or quad bike? These off-road bikes with three or four wheels are both fun and comfortable, ideal for exploring some unknown natural treasures.
Do you want to take on the challenge? So grab your helmets and your bikes, and set off on an adventure!
Julien Absalon is a French MTB cross-country champion; double Olympic champion, fourteen times French champion and five times world champion !

Are you looking for an exciting MTB adventure on Reunion Island ?
You’ll enjoy a trip with Teddy and his buggy !A buggy and a quad are both off-road, exploration vehicles with four wheels. With the compulsory seatbelt, steering wheel and accelerator pedal, the buggy is more like a car than the quad. On a quad, you don’t need to wear a seatbelt, but a safety helmet is compulsory.
The MTB is characterised by its narrower wheels, thicker tyres and it’s lightweight, making it more suitable for rugged terrain.
