Best Mountain Bike Rides to Technical Forest Descent

Tips

  • It's basically undoable going up and can only be done downhill on gravel bikes if it's been dry for quite a few days. When it's wet it's undoable on a gravel bike, unless you really want to have some close calls. My tip is, just avoid it at all costs.

  • beware for the mini drops by the tree roots, keep pedals flat , there are about 6 or so of these drops. Keep bike in low gear at bottom for root climb. No issues with MTBs

  • Fun sustained section of off-road. Moderately technical depending on the position of the ruts created by motorized traffic - however it can be ridden by gravel bike. NB. This is a Byway Open to All Traffic (BOAT) including motorized vehicles. There is the possibility of pedal strike in sections due to the ruts created by 4x4s.
