This icon offers on of the most beautiful views of the whole Region. The trail features a very rocky and exposed first half that requires a pretty high technical level. It was used twice as an EWS stage also because it changes to a faster and easier second half after a few minutes of riding.
After joining a narrow gravel road for the last section, it merges onto a tarmac road in Vezzi.

Top section is Prime, couple of loose rocks after the first crux, otherwise clean. Lower section has a lot of leaves, but still grippy

      This trail has 3 sections:

      Section 1: This is double black. Janky, rocky, awkward, some steep stuff, exposed, and sure to break some things on your bike (or you) if you take a tumble. The view is incredible.

      Section 2: Right where the trail meets the blue ride-around trail, it turns into a blue as you go down and into the forest switchbacks. Flowy, easy, no problem.

      Section 3: When you get to the next little "trail crossing" it turns light black/Dark blue. This section takes you down to the road. It has some steeper parts with some tighter steeper turns and a couple of drops. Its pretty fun.

      Because of the top section, this trail should be a double black.

      Lovely technical trail. First section Rocks are a real challenge at the top (double black), pick your lines carefully , after that is black as you progress down. Allot of fun. Highly recommended for anyone who likes natural unmanicured tech trails.

      Got quite a bit of work done in the lower bit which is super fun… top bit is still gnarly as…

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
