Downhill bike only trail to exit from Tamarancho. Beautifully built downhill singletrack with lots of fun to be had. It only took ten years and $500,000, but it's open now.

      Great trail to practice cornering on! Less places to catch air than Endor and perhaps less steep, but easier to get to and a good one for beginners to session in addition to Endor.

      Worth doing once. Top section was supremely muddy even a week after rain. Bottom section after road crossing was more fun.

      Fun trail! Kind of a toned-down version of the Endor flow trail. Great addition to Tamarancho.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
