      Never ridden anything like it - this trail is one long rock garden. Many limestone slabs and larg rocks from top to bottom. Luckily nothing to steep, exposed, or very high steps. Sometimes there are chickenlines around hard sectiones.

      Proper DH black. Loose jagged rocks, some tricky chutes requiring good technique. Full face and back protector recommended.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
