      The green rating on this trail is a bit of a misnomer. There’s some Pinkbike Impossible Climb level sections. It’s a pretty wide trail too. Good connector with pretty views though. Flow is probably an easier way to get through this section of Knoxville though.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
