      Bring your lightest bike because you will be carrying it up. There are many spots where a bike just won’t fit through between the rocks. The trail is realistically only rideable by a pro trials rider, everyone else will be leaving a trail of blood and broken bike parts. The trail is very busy with hikers and is rated as difficult for
      them.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
