CHAIRLIFT, MTB DEMOS, GOOD FOOD AND MUSIC ON AUGUST 15 AND SEPTEMBER 5
On Saturday August 15 and September 5, mountain bike happenings will take place at Mont SUTTON with mountain bike demos, chairlift in operation, music and good food! Mark your calendar!
Know that Mont SUTTON and Plein air Sutton/MTB are not launching a downhill bike offer… Cross-country and enduro style trails are the essence of our magnificent trail network. The idea of offering lift rides is to allow cyclists to save their effort and thus be able to enjoy the trails for longer periods of time.
CHAIRLIFT IN OPERATION
It will be a first for mountain biking at Mont SUTTON since the main chairlift (II) will be in operation during these two days of bike happenings! Cyclists, as well as pedestrians, will be able to buy lift ride tickets to get to the summit (alt. 680 m), either a single ascent for cyclists or a round trip for pedestrians.
It should be noted that this offer is for advanced cyclists only for the moment, since the chairlift only gives access to two difficult level trails and only one intermediate level route.

MOUNTAIN BIKE DEMOS
Mountain bike demos will also be offered free of charge on these days, of course a bike trail access ticket is required unless you are a Plein air Sutton/MTB season pass holder.

MUSIC AND GOOD FOOD
Before, during or after your ride, come and recharge your batteries! The outdoor restaurant at the foot of the trails will be open from 11 a.m. and will serve ribs and BBQ chicken for the occasion, in addition to the regular menu offering, among other things, poke bowls, salads and poutines. There will be something for every palate!
What’s more, starting at 2:30 p.m., singer-songwriter Sule, whom many discovered through the popular show La Voix, will be at the foot of the hill to offer you a folk and blues musical ambiance.
A TEAM OF ENTHUSIASTS AND A GROWING NETWORK
Remember that the mountain bike trail network is developed and managed by Plein air Sutton/MTB, a non-profit organization, which has at heart to offer you a unique and quality network! This is why it is important to pay your trail access fees in order to allow not only the maintenance of existing trails, but also the development of the network for everyone’s enjoyment.
Finally, you should know that COVID preventive measures have been put in place at the mountain, in addition to additional measures at our bike happenings to welcome you safely.
Mountain bike enthusiasts, we’re waiting for you!
