Description
Morgins is a mountain biking region in the Portes du Soleil region of the Swiss Alps on the French / Swiss border. There are a selection of Downhill, XC and Freeride trails with chair lift access. There are green, blue, red and black trails and a pump track. It's a quiet village and although it does not have the volume of purpose-built track as its sister regions in the Portes du Soleil it is very close by to Champoussin and Les Crosets and you can nip across the border to Chatel in the French alps pretty easily.

- Morgins has the infamous Freeride Xtreme downhill/northshore trail for expert riders.
- The cross country is good for beginners to intermediate level riders and there is also a Pump Track located in the centre of the village of Morgins by the M3S Bar and Ski School. It is a circuit of 15 rollers and berms
