      Amazing! A must ride! Nothing crazy challenging but it has some very well berm sections and the coolest most creative wooden bridges you’ll ever ride. I’d say it’s approachable for high level beginners.

      Insane in the membrane. Perfect mixt between flow trail and natural handmade Xcountry. Would do that loop infinitely.
