Currently (November 2025), the path is overgrown on both sides, and erosion has created a deep gully that's quite muddy 🤪 Not so easy to ride because you keep slipping into this gully 😫

Unfortunately, the trail is no longer accessible. Parts of it have been destroyed or the path has been intentionally blocked.
