· Supervision by a mountain bike coach is advisable.
· Wearing a helmet and protection is indispensable.
· Checking your material and not forgetting to take tools for repairs if necessary before setting out.
· Thinking about food and clothing for the cold weather, as well as waterproofs.
· Staying on the paths and not venturing off the beaten track.
· Taking note that the marked enduro circuits are not only for mountain bikers, pedestrians have priority.
· Mountain bikers are forbidden on certain tracks, watch out for the notices on site.
· Watching out for all 4x4 vehicles.
· Respecting the countryside, not throwing your rubbish away but taking it back with you.
· Avoiding leaving alone and telling somebody close where you intend to go and at what time you intend to return.

Bike patrol, the new job on the go!
In the same way that the ski patrols work on the ski area in winter, Bike Patrol swaps skis for mountain bikes to patrol the Bike Park.
In Tignes, the Bike Patrols are there to welcome, advise and direct you, preparing and marking the Bike Park tracks as well as maintaining them.
Problems, questions or advice… Tignes’ Bike Patrols are around all summer to help you take full advantage of the Bike Park.
