Easy Singletrack trail, crosses an old farm road a few times. Rolling up and down through the forest in the style of swoops and loops. Some short steep pitches to keep things interesting.

      A great trail for XC race training. Def tougher than what I'd take a beginner rider on, due to some tight turns, a sidewinder section, and some small punchy ups and down, with small rocks occasionally popping up. Brilliant build. Thank you!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
