Gravel road covered by a canopy of trees!

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful stretch of smooth gravel. The road is lined with trees, so there is a lot of shade as you are riding, so this is a great option for a hot, sunny day.

Absolutely beautiful road - but dangerous! Narrow, winding, with constant ups and downs. Drivers comes fast and may be super impatient.
