Remake of the old (inner) Dancing trail. A fun & twisty crosscountry loop. Relatively flat, with several of the twist having a small berm to help the faster folks out there, making it more fun and challenging if you pedal at full speed given the tight turns.

Features: Two very large stumps back-to-back that are rollable (but more fun as jumps - see POIs), several berms (despite the trail being mostly flat), and a bunch of minor more technical features disperse throughout.

Access Info

The entrance is just opposite and slightly south of the east end of Tour De Stump, but there's another entrance closer to ITT/Hacked Through to Go Kart.
