Fast when dry singletrack through the woods with glimpses of the reservoir on your right hand-side that opens up into a loose rocky descent, great fun! Good confidence on the bike required because it can get quite techy in places.

Fantastic, fast and fun descent. you really can let the brakes go and let the bike show you what it can do. At the same time you can take it steady and it is rideable by anyone. Top draw!

I always try to get this downhill into any route around Ladybower. It is such a great descent. Not mega technical but ramps it up as you get further down and really invites you to give it full throttle. Really rewarding! Just be aware on the last sharp bend there may be people coming up (the weirdos 😜). Possibly my favourite descent in the area.....🤔
