Some tracks can be hard to find, a few trees obstruct paths and certain areas turn into a swamp. Better ride for summer than winter

Good jump and berms section in the woods just outside Austerby. Not too technical so fine for beginners if the weather has been fair.

Plenty of trails to hunt out that have been built up over the years. Forestry can make it hard to link them together at times
