MTB trails in Vaujany
Practise area, Enduro trails and trial zones up the valley from Oz en Oisans
From the very top of the cable car you'll find a 'liaison trail' which takes you over the ridge line, past Lac Blanc and down to the top of the Poutran gondola. From here you can cut across to the right, past Lac Besson and onto the enduro trail taking you back to Vaujany, or just can shorten the trip by getting off the Dome des Rousses lift at the mid station.

The liaison trail is worth taking into account, at 12km long it's great for spectacular views and is the second highest lift in the area at 2,810m.
EN7
'Crazy Mustang' is the red enduro trail that takes you back to Vaujany village, past the bike skills area on the way, and back to rejoin the Dome des Rousses cable car. It's 8km long and includes a four-cross section with a descent of -1,500m.
From Vaujany you can also pick up two blue XC trail to either get to Oz or the dam at Allémont (also the bottom of the Megavalanche trail).
