This well built double wide trail was a labor of love, close to 3 years to completed and over 3500 hours of volunteer labor lead to the creation of this 2 km dual directional trail. The trail provides an excellent opportunity for beginners to learn mountain biking on a low consequence trail, while also providing a climbing connection all the way to the top of Dilemma (mid mountain).

This trail travels though beautiful fern filled forests, past large rocks, large cedar trees, and features over a dozen large cedar bridges.

This trail is designated as a non-motorized multi-use trail, it was built primarily for cyclists; however foot traffic is more than welcome and encouraged. Please be respectful of all trail users, share the trails.

      Beats riding up the road! Excellent climb trail, the work pays off! Makes Vedder a better MB destination!

      Super fun flow trail for a newbie! I would recommend climbing UP this trail from the parking lot instead of taking the forest road. It's not very steep and would be way more enjoyable than the road. The road suuucked (but again, I'm new at this)

      I must say, this is probably the best green climbing trail I've ever been on.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
