      The Mala Compra Trail is a slow technical ride in what seems like several different natural Florida habitats. The one way trail begins with hardback single track with switchbacks and straight-a-ways through palm brush for about 2 miles. Then you will reach a section spanning 1.5 miles with challenging climbs, quick descents, tight inclined turns, and rock gardens all surrounding several sulfur springs. This section is followed by several miles of flowing switchbacks. Finally, your ride will end right where you started after a final .5 mile up and down finish.
      Primary Trail Type: Cross-Country
      Parking google parking directions
      Access Info:
      Riders can park at Bing’s Landing on A1A about 3 miles north of Palm Coast Parkway. Bing’s Landing has pavilions, picnic tables, and bathrooms. Follow the painted crosswalk across A1A then follow the path about 50 yards and you will see the challenging trail entrance over the rocks on your right.
