This is old-school mountain biking at its absolute best.
Big climbs. Fast flowing descents. Technical sections. Wild open landscapes. Remote trails. That feeling of being completely out in the middle of nowhere with nothing but mountains, fresh air and your bike.
This is what proper mountain biking is all about.
The Elan Challenge is not a race. Never has been.
It’s a challenge — ridden at your own pace with chilled-out vibes, friendly riders and one of the most relaxed atmospheres on the MTB calendar. That’s exactly why so many riders return year after year.
Relaxed doesn’t mean unorganised though. Safety, planning and professionalism are always at the heart of everything we do, so you can focus on enjoying an incredible day on the bike knowing everything else is taken care of.
