The Grimentz pump track: the free bump track, for families

A bump track in open access

In Grimentz, the pump track is an asphalt track of about 900 m² made of bumps and banked turns. The idea: move forward without pedalling, by « pumping » with your body to pick up speed. On a bike, BMX, scooter or skateboard, children string together laps and progress at their own pace. Free and open-access, it's an ideal playground for burning off energy in the open air as soon as the fine days return.

What your children will discover

Children learn to manage their balance and speed, to link the bumps and turns, and to gain ease on their wheels. From the cautious beginner to the more confident rider, everyone finds their pleasure and progresses quickly. It's a fun, sporty activity that develops coordination, balance and confidence.

What you do and the atmosphere on site

You turn up with your bike, scooter or skateboard and your helmet, and off you go for laps of the track. The atmosphere is sporty and friendly, in the heart of the resort. You can easily follow up with another village activity (mini-golf, playground). A helmet is strongly recommended.
