Nescafe is an old school trail. The top half is littered with rock rolls and other slow, technical features. The bottom half is a pedally, loamy, low-angle XC trail. Sometimes the bottom half can be tricky to find/follow, as the forest floor becomes indistinct with pine needles. Riders often choose to ride 'upper' Nescafe to 'lower' The Hammer for ease of pathfinding.

This trail is unsanctioned.
