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.
