Even though it turns sharply to the right, I would recommend this path. The path straight ahead becomes quite narrow with a lot of scree.

Certain sections are very tricky. Loose scree, partly hidden under leaves and very narrow.

There's a bike park here. The trails range from easy to very difficult. The marked trail should be of medium difficulty. It's a lot of fun to ride there.
