Once again this is a memorable MTB experience starting from the Blue Tier (790m above sea level ) and ending at Swimcart Beach on the Bay of Fires. Like no other trail in the region the Bay of Fires Trail traverses a wide array of landscapes, forests and riding conditions along its 42km route. The first 13km traverses loamy tracks through sub alpine shrublands before plunging into shaded moist temperate rainforests and emerging into the open forests on more sandy soils that take you to the coast. The First 13 offers some sensational fast flow riding with trail builders obviously focusing on carrying speed through beautifully crafted berms and features. After the exhilaration of the first 13km you settle more into the experience of the ride through the hilly, boulder strewn landscape rewarded by tree framed views of the Bay of Fires below, and a nice final descent to the beach.
