    Tips

    We rode down this technical, rock-filled mountain trail and are happy with that choice. With a bit of steering, we were able to cycle large sections downhill, sometimes using the narrow singletrack along the side of the road. I expect you'll have to walk for a long time on the way up, but for a beautiful loop through the rest of the Balmoral Estate, this trail is definitely worth it.

      Be prepared for some hike 'a' bike up this section

        November 13, 2023

        A difficult, but relatively short, section of hard-to-ride terrain. Descending some is possible, especially on full-suspension. Ascending is difficult unless you're a strong, experienced rider. But again, it's short, and this segment allows you to combine some great stretches.
