This run starts with a short bus ride, which saves 400 meters of climbing. As a result, there’s plenty of downhill—a combination of cruising through meadows and some fun, technical sections toward the end.

Bonus KMs and Bailouts

The bonus kilometers offer big rewards, so try to include them if you have time!
Note that not every run has a bailout. But if a run does, we’ve included the download below.
