THIS IS NOT A BEGINNER RIDE. I’ve been mountain biking for 30 years, most all of this ride in intermediate and some parts are advanced. Easy would be Campbell Mesa in Flag or Bell Rock path. This ride contains some steep and technical climbs and lots of intermediate downs and switch backs. Don’t sleep, this ride is great but don’t let anyone tell you it’s easy/beginner. The full Girdner looo is great too, but has a very sketch exposed section that puts it in the advanced category. Enjoy and ride with confidence.

Nice conditions!! Fast, fun, little tech here and there. Great for beginner intermediates or a warm up for more advanced riders.

Great loop for the strong beginner/intermediate rider. The last blast up the Girdner hill may require some walking, but overall a great introduction to the different types of terrain in Sedona.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
