Activate “Beast Mode” for this tour of all the advanced trails on the East Side of Turkey Point Trails.

This route features black diamond trails and is classified as advanced, although most intermediate riders should be able to handle the route without much difficulty.

Starting from the Dump parking lot, head right into the black diamond trails via Toxicity, the crown jewel of the Dump Trails. Watch for the two drop features on Hot Flash to get a bit of air time before traversing towards the more difficult trails further east. Jimmy’s Joker features the a gnarly steep downhill section as well as a large jump should you decide that your bike is capable of orbit. Experience the blazing downhill speeds on Bromont and High Mile. Reaching the top of Summit trail, you are at the highest elevation point of the trail system… enjoy the Summit Enduro downhill from here. Get rowdy on Earshot before riding the exposed cliff on East Ridge, overlooking Lake Erie and the village of Turkey Point. Fox on the Run and Piledriver will finish off the black diamond trails before a nice cool-down back to the parking lot via Stroller Head into Turkey Point, or over to the Marshview Patio at Eco Adventures for burgers and beers… you deserve it.
