Mystic's Hero trail is a 3km flow trail filled with big berms and jumps of all sizes. Most of the jumps can be rolled over or have optional A & B lines. It is highly recommended to do a sighting run first, to get to know the flow.

      Most epic trail I have ridden in a long time. Super fun predictable lips on the jumps and sweet berms, great rollers in the lower sections. recommended everyday of the week!

      Combine with Shred kellys for a super fun must do run. The jumps at the top are well built and spaced, berms are high and fast.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
