Carnage is one of the best high speed trails in Rockwood. Mostly accessed from the Long Lake to Shyzer route. Technical rock outcroppings early, followed by a fast down hill section, a steady climb, another down hill and a steep climb to finish. Can be ridden in either direction but most riders prefer Long Lake to Shyzer to Carnage as the starting point.
