      Not particularly technical, but relatively steep with easy switchbacks.
      The most exposed parts (switchbacks at the edge of a cliff etc.) have been secured with log-walls, so the trail is pretty safe to ride. A bit challenging with the thick leaf layer at the moment, but still very manageable.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
