    Tips

    August 4, 2021

    The most spectacular balcony road along the valley side with gorgeous views and often circle around you. There's a mix of grassy climb, wide gravel doubletrack and a few gates through a woodland, but all brilliant fun and dusty in the dry!

    The track is part of the Mach 1 mountain biking loop, but is also great on a gravel bike or sturdy tourer.

      Gorgeous views of the route and surrounding peaceful countryside.
