Our take
A hire shop that rides with you too: a state-qualified instructor, rides around Châtel-Guyon, in the Pays Brayaud and the Combrailles, route advice.
Electric mountain bike hire and guided rides in the Chaîne des Puys, starting from Châtel-Guyon.
Electric mountain bike hire and guiding in Châtel-Guyon, on Avenue des États-Unis. Guided rides in the Chaîne des Puys and the Combrailles, unguided hire of mountain bikes and electric mountain bikes, corporate team building. Helmet provided with hire, bike and helmet included in the rides. In 2026, a guided ride costs from €48 to €74 per person depending on the option, and an electric mountain bike can be hired for €48 for a half-day or €68 for a day. Open all year, with 2026 hours that change with the season: 7 days a week from 09:00 to 19:00 in July and August; from Easter to Toussaint (the autumn school holidays), Tuesday to Saturday and Sunday morning, closed on Monday; in the low season, Tuesday to Saturday. It is also a repair workshop and a shop. 20 km north of Clermont-Ferrand.
Why we love it
- The hillsides of Châtel-Guyon on an electric mountain bike, riding behind a state-qualified instructor
- The Combrailles to discover with a guide who knows every path
- The electric bike that opens up terrain you wouldn't have dared to tackle otherwise
- The equipment provided, helmet included: all you have to do is pedal
Top tip
In summer, book your ride in advance. For groups, the shop can organise a departure in the Chaîne des Puys, with transport. A helmet is provided with the bike.
Before you go
- Book your guided ride in advance
- Take the chance to ask about quieter routes: the guide has favourite spots
- Bring warm clothing even in summer: the wind on the heights catches you out
