This very pleasant trail is fine for good beginners. However a few sections are rather technical. After the first uphill incline the track goes through woodland and then onto the first downhill slope. When you get to the bottom a succession of bends make it quite amusing. After the stock car circuit a fast and interesting path takes you up to the top of the hill then along the hillside. After the village, the return journey is a succession of wide paths back to Saint Donat.
