Rough Dirt Road

Highlight • Trail

Keep your eyes on the ground partly, you need to pick a decent ride line. Parts of these trails have rough surfaces that tend to knock the line of the bike

Rough Gravel Track

These gravel sections are a bit rough, they are not flat surfaces and contain small boulders. You have to keep your eyes to the ground and pick a decent line

Lough Hill Pond

Highlight • Lake

Lough Hill pond is just a small pond, I can not call it a lake. The surface along here is a bit more rugged and slower to ride on.
