Stage 3

Trail Overview

Stage 3 is a double black diamond section and one of the most demanding parts of the Enduro Trail, best for advanced riders seeking continuous, high-level challenges. The trail threads tightly between trees with root bands and features relentless technical elements--loose rocky climbs and descents, bedrock outcroppings, and extremely steep sections that require expert throttle control and braking. Riders will need proper tire placement through deep troughs and root-crossed slopes that can be slick in wet or dry conditions. Scenic and lush as it parallels a small forest stream, this mile-long stage tests riders with momentum-critical climbs, downed logs, and nonstop obstacles. A bailout at the end offers an optional exit point to Trail 5, otherwise, the trail continues to Stage 4, which is slightly easier. This segment can also be skipped if riders take the bailout at the end of Stage 2, directly to Stage 5.
