As you gain a little elevation, the trees occasionally give way to bright clearings and open views across the Rhône valley and the surrounding mountains. The section around Lac des Miriouges adds a peaceful touch to the ride, with water, pastureland and forest edges creating a landscape typical of the high plateau.
Alternating between forest tracks, alpine roads and sections along meadow edges, this route offers an accessible yet immersive gravel ride, ideal for discovering the scenery around Crans-Montana on a shorter outing full of character.

Roadbook
The route starts by the shores of Lac de la Moubra, heading straight into the Moubra forest. The opening kilometres follow wide, smooth forest tracks, ideal for warming up and settling into a steady rhythm right from the start.
The trail then winds along flowing gravel paths as the gradient gradually increases, gaining elevation at a steady pace. The climb leads towards Lac des Miriouges, where the more open setting makes a good spot for a short break. From here, the route continues on fairly smooth tracks, crossing meadows and forest edges that keep the pace nicely varied.
As you climb higher, the landscape opens out into alpine pastures, with wide views over the Rhône valley and the surrounding mountains. The route then gently climbs back towards Crans-Montana, following alpine paths and small local roads below the resort.
The final kilometres pass through Crans-Montana on quiet roads before returning to Lac de la Moubra, the starting point of this short and varied loop.
