Spring Trails in the Pyrenees Orientales, Dino.

A series of trail videos all shot in the month of March 2018. Summer is coming!!

Dino. Dino is actually the lower part of one of our "Backcountry Tourof the Pyrenees Orientales" trails. In spring the upper part is fully buried in snow but as is the beauty of riding in this part of the world the lower trails stay dry all year round.

Enjoy.

Cami Ramader. This translates as "Royal Way" and dates back to the 15th century when a lot of packhorse trails were toll trails. The king decreed that some trails were to be free to use and called them Cami Ramaders but for us today this trail should just be considered trail royalty!

Spring Trails in the Pyrenees Orientales, the Jackhammer.

Jackhammer. In French the trail is called "le Marteaupiquer", it is a fun mix of old cobbled packhorse trail and natural bedrock that really lets you fly. When you get to the bottom you really understand the name as at full tilt you feel like you have been hanging on to a jackhammer for the last 10 minutes.

Enjoy.

Customer comments

Danny Milner reports after an April biking visit to us...." I'm guided along alpine singletrack beneath limestone bluffs the spitting image if the Dolomites or the Canadian Rockies, along precipitious terraces overhung by ochre rock formations that resemble parts of Colorado, and through pine forests scattered with huge granite boulders that remind me of Lake Tahoe. It's like a journey through the world's best singletrack, condensed into a 25km radius."
