Key sections to master
01
Start and opening flow
The trail begins with a gentle descent, ideal for warming up and finding your rhythm. Use this section to get the best entry speed.

Exposure
The trail is not extreme, but on sections with bigger steeps and fast turns it demands the rider's full attention.
