For beginners and kids, the green and blue routes (and pump track) offer an opportunity to get to grips with the ins and outs of single track with well thought out loops that don’t offer any hidden surprises. A great aspect of the trail layout is the many ‘bail-out’ options where tired riders can easily join the return loop.
