Great flow trail. Can’t wait till it is fully finished. Top half is still open though.

The original penultimate descent of the red trail. Used to be great on bikes of a 2010 vintage but honestly these days it's a bit flat and boring. They could take our 2 or 3 of the switchbacks to make it a lot more interesting.

Trail is really good fun, includes some tabletops which were the first ones I have ever cleared, probably why I am so fond of this trail.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
