Nestled on the southern border of England and Wales, it's an MTB playground

0 to 0.1 hours

You can probably guess what's on the menu here; roots and lots of them. This is a very natural feeling downhill trail that offers up a good bit of challenge thanks to lots of off-camber sections, lots of downhill gradient and yes, loads and loads of roots. It might be short and sweet, but there's plenty to get stuck into. It's easily accessed via the push-up track.
