Difficulty levels – find the right trail for you

Green: Very easy. Easy biking on gravel roads and wide tracks.
Blue: Easy. Like green but more single-track sections and smaller obstacles.
Red: Moderate. More technical sections, challenging climbs and ascents than blue.
Black: Expert. Sustained and very technical sections with steep slopes, roots and stones.
