One of the best trails in the Zurich Area. Steep and fast, like a rollercoaster. It`s certainly not for beginners, some sections are black diamond, the trail can be really fast if it's dry.

Don't ride when it's wet, because it's no fun and dangerous.

This trail is unsanctioned.

      Super trail..on 3/4 wet..very fun to ride!!

      Proper BC blue trail. Some steep and exposed sections but nothing requiring too much technical skill. All harder features have chicken lines. Black if wet due to the slick clay and mud, don't ride it in these conditions unless you're a pro or from BC. Wink

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
