Trail with better past than present. Big granite boulders make it a real challenge to ride it without taking any foot out. Difficulty is not in vertical steps but in riding the rock gardens.

      Such a bad maintenance, this trail could be good if there were not all this vegetation on 90% of the distance.
      I recommend to start the descent on the Turbinas connection as well.

      Not a nice trail at all. Full of bush with thorns in the first part and loose rocks afterwards. It's better to start descending from the Turbine Connection trail.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
