Description:
Trail is shit! At least by North American standards. Teleferico should not be promoting downhill mountain biking on this trail and the Teleferico DH trail. You can hardly even call this a trail. Bottom section is more like route finding with sketchy river gully crossings and open fields of angry cows and cow pies everywhere. Entire top 2/3 is lined with this plastic cribbing shit I guess to keep it from eroding. Well it’s not really working and just makes the trail worse. There’s one steep Freeride line that bypasses a good chunk of the switchbacks which I guess is pretty cool but all in all, do yourself a favour and ride with a local or a guide who will take you somewhere better!
