    Folks,

    Anyone been to Vallnord in Andorra? Looks like a huge range of trails but it's never come across my radar before. Normally head to France (Les Deux Alpes) and was looking at Tignes for Summer 2020 but Vallnord looks like a good alternative.

    Any other recommendations?

    Thanks

    Nice bike park, no where near as big as Les Gets/Morzine experience. Town is nice too but once again, lot more going on in France but you'll still have fun. Longer drive too from airport (Barcelona) If you have your own car, Grand Valeria is 10 min drive so theres no shortage of tracks all the same. Valnord is Cedric Gracias back yard hence hes designed some tracks there and the DH WC track is mental.

    For comparison; the WC track at Fort William is not considered steep (by WC standards), and parts of that are both big and steep. And that's in addition to the 'smooth' parts of the track being rough AF never mind the parts considered gnarly. The WC track at Valnord will be on a whole other level of steep and gnarly.
