Trail Overview
Stage 9 is the final leg of the Enduro Trail, guiding riders back toward the start of the loop. After crossing Trail 1A, the path narrows into dense, scraggly woods with thin trees, low branches, and narrow tree gaps. Expect slick embedded root bands, gradual but troughed climbs, and small logs down across the trail--including one low enough to force a duck-under. While this section lacks the major rock features of earlier stages, it remains engaging due to its overgrown, narrow nature and slick roots. Stage 9 concludes back on Trail 1A, leading riders toward Hang Glide Hill and the return to the main office, marking the completion of the full Enduro Trail experience.
Difficulty
This is one of the easier segments of the enduro trail, with slick roots, troughs, narrow sections of trail, but more gradual climbs throughout the route.
