      Lower part with very dense vegetation "tunnel"
      rent4trail rent4trail
      Currenty trail needs some maintance. There are places with high weeds. Some berms are with loose rocks. Lower part of trail is very loose.

      there is introduced and fenced horses to the trail. so you need to pass gates to enter the trail.

      Even better when riding for the second time. Once you know the trail you can get some serious speed and really enjoy the flow to the fullest Smile

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
