MTB World Cup Comes to Meribel This Summer

~ 40,000 people expected to attend the event

The UCI Mountain Bike World Cup is coming to Meribel this August, and it's set to bring massive crowds with it.

The 4 day event takes place from 21-24th August and will see the culmination of the DH, XCE and XCO with the Elite mens and womens champions being crowned.

For those of you who don't speak mountain bike - XCE is a cross country (enduro) eliminator race similar to four cross, XCO is a Cross Country (enduro) race and DH is downhill racing (arguably the most popular in terms of fan numbers).

If you don't happen to make it over to Meribel this summer, you can watch all the races live on RedBull TV.

If you are coming over and need somewhere to stay, have a look at our accommodation section, or speak to one of the local Rental Agents.
