What is Mountain Kart?

The Mountain Kart is a three-wheel all-terrain kart specially designed for mountain slopes. Motorless and totally silent, it is controlled by gravity. You control your speed with two disc brakes, for a safe descent. Its wide, stable design makes it ultra-maneuverable, even for beginners.
Accessible from a minimum height of 1m40, this activity is perfect for the whole family: children, teenagers, parents and even grandparents can enjoy this experience at their own pace. The backdrop is the sumptuous scenery of Flaine and the Grand Massif, from lush green alpine meadows to immaculate slopes. You’ll never look at the mountains the same way again after this thrilling, panoramic go-karting experience.
