Are you dreaming of riding one of Europe's most iconic bike parks while exploring untouched enduro trails in one of the safest countries in Europe? All under amazing weather and with incredible food waiting at the end of each ride? We have the ultimate mountain e-bike holiday package. Discover what Grandvalira E-Bike Park and Vallnord Bike Park have to offer. Designed for riders, by riders.
The Pyrenees have long been a magnet for mountain bikers looking for high-alpine terrain, lift-access trails and epic scenery. In recent years, Grandvalira has expanded its summer offer with the Grandvalira E-Bike Park, creating one of the most interesting bike park in Europe experiences for riders who want to explore big mountains with the help of an e-bike.
While the nearby Vallnord Bike Park in La Massana has long been known as one of the best gravity-focused destinations in the Pyrenees, Grandvalira takes a slightly different approach: it combines alpine exploration, flow trails and long-distance riding designed specifically for electric mountain bikes.
For riders planning bike park holidays in Europe, this creates a perfect combination of technical gravity riding in Vallnord and adventure-focused e-MTB trails in Grandvalira.
How the Grandvalira E-Bike Park works
Unlike a traditional gravity bike park that relies entirely on chairlifts, the Grandvalira E-Bike Park is designed around the capabilities of modern e-bike technology.
The system works through a network of:
- Dedicated e-MTB climbing trails
- Limited lift access
- Flowing descent trails
- Scenic alpine routes
- Charging and service points
Riders typically start from resort bases such as Soldeu, El Tarter or Canillo, where rental shops and service stations provide electric mountain bikes and equipment. From there you take the gondola up to the main riding areas and start moving around on the e-bike. The Bike Pass includes 4 rides a day on the Encamp (Funicamp), Canillo and Soldeu gondolas.
Because the motor helps riders climb, the park can offer routes that would normally require lifts. This means you get:
- Much longer rides
- More natural terrain
- Epic alpine descents
- Access to remote areas of the Pyrenees
For many riders, this format represents the next evolution of the bike park in Europe concept.

Within a short distance you can ride the two parks in Andorra and the Ax-les-Thermes Bike Park in France.
