About this place

This accessible mountain-bike loop starts and finishes at Lac des Settons in Montsauche-les-Settons. The route covers 14 kilometres and includes 368 metres of climbing. It explores the wooded surroundings of the lake, alternating between unpaved tracks, forest paths and sections close to the water. Its limited distance and official ‘easy’ classification make it a good introduction to mountain biking in the Morvan. Bear in mind that even this shorter route includes several climbs. Follow the VTT-FFC waymarking and take the GPX file with you as a backup. Check trail conditions and any temporary diversions before setting off.
