The Verderers Trail is one of the UK’s top blue-graded rides and offers a mix of surfaces, switchback climbs, and flowing descents. Along the way, you'll find rollers, berms, and challenges to sharpen your skills. The trail’s highlight is the Dragon’s Tail, it is a thrilling, fast-paced final descent you’ll want to ride again and again.
