Barfield Crescent
The beginner trails are more physically challenging than riding a gravel road. They have some sections that new riders may need to walk around, but clearing them improves skill & confidence.
The Barfield trail system is very technical, but has a bit of variety to offer for everyone looking for a challenge. There are Beginner, Intermediate and Expert loops with varying degrees of difficulty. The start of each trail is clearly marked with map sign.
