While this is the easiest way down some basic mountain biking skills are needed. It has many optional features to keep your progression going.
Bumblebee is a great way to get started in downhill mountain biking. Some experience in mountain biking is recommended. Be aware this trail requires some pedaling along Summer Road to get back to the village. A trail or enduro bike is recommended.

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Green Rating: Beginner features and moderate terrain.

The large rock feature halfway down the trail has a narrow entrance. It is not the mainline. It is signed as a BLUE harder line just after a road crossing.,
