Planning your ride on the C-Trail requires some preparation, as this route is considered advanced-intermediate technical, or black diamond, and is not suitable for novice riders. You will need strong confidence, excellent balance, and precise braking control to handle its many tight turns. While primarily a downhill experience, be ready for sections with loose gravel and sharp basalt fields in the lower parts of the trail.
