great trail, the features build up as you go through the course. it starts off slow and builds up through out the course leading to a really fast fun section near the end.

Pretty good trail takes a good while to get going however with the first 75 percent of the trail being just a slow climb, however it links to Blue Nuit which is one of the best trails in the park and the last 25% of the trail is quite fun.

Rough trail on a bike. A lot of large roots.Has some great down hill sections. Watch carefully when you take the double track you do not fly past the single track sections. Happend to me twice and had to back track. Beautiful trail to check out.

This is fun but serious. Very technical and a ton of uphill peddling over roots. It is definitely marked double black for a reason. Was an awesome experience to test my grit.

First mountain bike ride in about 2 years, technically and physically demanding trail - managed to stay afloat while riding for the entirety of the trail but had to break. If you want fitness training and work on technical development this is the trail for you. The trail doesn't seem to have a whole lot of use on it, though that could be due to it being more like a traditionally built trail and not groomed like the other trails, kind of wish there were more trails like this at Brookvale.

I really like this trail. It’s old school single track and once you ride it everything else just seems so much easier. It’s definitely not for novice riders but if you have been riding for a while and want to up your skills this is a good trail to try.

Trail Blue Nuit
One of the most new school flow trails I've ridden in the maritimes. Nice big deep berms, a couple of good sized table tops that are very smooth with enough speed, and a few choppy bits thrown in for good measure. A helluva lot of fun, and mixes well with the more technical sections further in this trail system.

A great climb & descend trail. Some of the climbs were too steep for my poorly gear dh-oriented bike, but the descents were super fun. Lots of roots and tiny hits and small berms when you need them most. Recommended!

Awesome oldschool roots and bumps, love it. Wouldn't rate it double black though. There's nothing of any concequence on this trail, no drops or mandatory air. At the same time you have to have skills to stay on your bike for the whole trail.
