A smooth, wide, fast and flowing course. The original official course on the hill is aimed at intermediate riders with a series of drops and jumps all the way to the bottom. a good warm up for your first run although watch the carpet of loose pebbles during dry summer spells

      Unless you are at style cop for the really big trail features, this is the best trail on the hill. Can be ridden year round.
