Stage 4

Stage 4 offers a moderately difficult but still technical ride, giving riders a break from the more difficult stages 2 and 3. This section winds tightly through dense trees with frequent root crossings, narrow corners, and tightly spaced turns that demand constant focus. Steep, rooty climbs and scattered small logs present small challenges, along with loose rock sections on the ascents. While it lacks major rock obstacles, the persistent roots and narrow terrain keep the difficulty at an intermediate level. There is a bailout at the end of Stage 4 to connect to a later segment of Stage 5 to shorten the mileage.
