Pedal access only due to rock slide on the access road above 1300m. The road gets steeper but is manageable & is line with lots of nice mountain flowers.

The trail is nice single track through the forest with lots of flat corners. It ends with a few loose, steep, spicy switchbacks above a cliff to bring you back to the shuttle road where you can enjoy a view & link to Lower Della.

 Bottom is trashed by horses. And a bit overgrown elsewhere. Otherwise good. Probably not worth the trek though.

      Trail is in great condition but the upper half has 8 trees down over the trail. I cleared it up with a machete so you can lift your bike over them and it’s perfect in between the trees down.

      Nice descent. Great shape. Consequences at the very bottom are severe if there's a mishap; be careful
