      Wow, really amazed by this trail. First it starts with a few jumps where one feels very confident. Pretty well built. Then you go into like a downhill passage. There you hit some features and roll over stones. That passage was extremely funny. At last you ride over a tiny bridge and stand next to a waterfall. Totally beautiful.
      Thanks to the builder and the ones who care about the trail. It made my Norway trip even better.

      Best Trail ever! Thank you very much, Boys and Girls who build it ???? I would prefer a Fully to my Hardtail, but it's still possible to Ride ????

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
