The Sphinx Track fire trail has a steep descent and moderate to hard return uphill for mountain biking (an ebike makes the ascent a bit easier). The surface is dry, many sections with rocky gravel, which can be slippery. You can get some good air with the rollers that can be fun. There is easy parking before the toll booth.

A steep descent with rollers that is a load of fun. Tough, tough climb out. Watch out for walkers.
