The UCI Downhill, Enduro & Cross-Country World Cup 2025 is Coming to the Haute-Savoie!
Hold onto your hats, because one of the most iconic stops on the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup circuit is returning to the Haute-Savoie region for 2025. From August 21st to 31st, the eyes of the mountain biking world will be locked onto the Haute-Savoie region as the world’s best downhill riders take on its legendary slopes. The Worlds best racers riding the iconic trails of the Haute-Savoie Region, this is one event you won’t want to miss.
Whilst the location of specific events are not yet 100% confirmed, it is hard to imagine that the Downhill World Cup for 2025 will not be held at the Legendary Les Gets after so many years of iconic racing.
A Brief History of the Les Gets Downhill World Cup
Les Gets isn’t just any old mountain—this French resort has deep roots in downhill racing. Hosting its first UCI World Cup event in 1998, and its neighbour Morzine and the wider Portes du Soleil region quickly established itself as one of the premier locations for elite riders. The technical tracks, steep descents, and breathtaking alpine views made it a firm favourite among riders and fans alike. Fast forward to the 2020s, and Les Gets has cemented its iconic status as one the biggest and best races of the year with some of the most memorable World Cup events in recent years, including the epic 2021 World Championships and epic wash out of 2024.
But what makes the Les Gets World Cup 2025 stand out is its commitment to pushing the limits of what’s possible. The course designers aren’t afraid to throw in new features, challenging riders to master some of the most gnarly terrain the Alps have to offer. This year promises no less: expect wild root gardens, blisteringly fast straights, and heart-stopping drops.
Why Les Gets is a Fan Favourite
So what is it that makes Les Gets such a beloved stop on the UCI circuit? It’s the perfect mix of insane riding and an unbeatable atmosphere. The track itself is a rider’s paradise—a gnarly blend of natural root sections and meticulously crafted jumps that provide plenty of airtime for those brave enough to send it. Spectators get front-row seats to all the action, whether it’s from the side of the track or one of the big-screen viewing areas dotted around the mountain.
But it’s not just about the racing. The entire town of Les Gets transforms into a mountain biking mecca during World Cup week. Think buzzing après-ride vibes, pop-up bike shops, athlete meet-and-greets, and a festival atmosphere that runs from dawn ‘til dusk. Whether you’re a hardcore fan of the sport or just love a good party in the mountains, the Les Gets World Cup is the place to be.
