    Finale Outdoor Region

One of the first trails built in the Nato Base area. The longest trail of the 4 that roll down straight from the Base itself, and one of the most fun. Fast lines, banks, tiny jumps and a lot of flow, definitely a must-ride of the area. The cool scenery of the Nato Base is a great introduction to the very fun trails that lay ahead.
