Year Opened2014
This is a trail loop beginning at Qualchan Golf Course. You begin a pedaling up an old access road for a short time before getting onto single track. Terrain is rolling and fun, with intermittent rocks and roots, narrow trails in very steep hillside cuts, but generally not too sketchy. Very fun on any bike that goes up AND down.

I'm wondering if whomever recorded this trail might have taken a wrong turn at the insertion. I came across multiple people going the opposite direction.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
