Description

For a true cross-country mountain biker, it doesn't get much better than this northern stretch of the La Tierra trails.

If you are headed west, you are in for a treat as it is almost entirely downhill. If you are headed east, this trail serves as the toughest climbing in the entire trail network. The tight, winding nature of this trail makes it all the better. You'll be bummed when it is over, unless you're climbing it!
