A fun hand built trail through mature forest. Can be ridden both ways with the help of the "Easy Does It" trail, but most fun riding from the bottom of "Plantation" or "Around the Beech". The trail takes you down into a small gully and back up the other side. There is one section with a few very steep up and down sections through a second gully, but this section can be avoided by taking the "Easy Does It" trail. There are a couple of fairly narrow bridges in the middle.

      Not sure what gives this a black rating. Lots of room, no obstacles. Expected more challenging features. Rides like the other blue trails here.
      Great trail though

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
