Last part is blocked with big logs. A lot of potential for new obstacles. Some guys already work on it.

      There is a difference between UK green and German Green.. this is quite fun definitely not for super beginners though everyone can learn here.. very fun and fast flowing a bit technical trail! Small jumps.. few high berms at the beginning.. a rooty part and a fe places with stones..

      Schneller Flowtrail mit gebauten kleinen Anliegern und kleineren Sprüngen (abrollbar). Macht Spaß!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
