A cross country style singletrack trail connecting the west end of Sun Peaks to the village. Connects to an older pre-existing trail with a mix of singletrack and doubletrack. Rides a bit easier starting from the village end as it trends downhill in that direction.

A small ride-through tree feature may be intimidating for newer/less confident riders, but is easy to walk through until you're ready to tackle it on the bike.
