      This looks unreal. If I am traveling to Nova Scotia next Summer, is this spot reachable?

      This trail starts at the pole line and travels through the woods along the edge if the hill. Trail surface is rocky but good the beginer to intermediate mountain biking.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
