Little Sugar Drop
2.5 km25 minChallengingLinear104 m climbNo dogs
The trail begins with a steep climb up Little Sugarloaf to the drop-in point. From there, the route is mostly descending or flat. It’s graded as difficult, with a hard-packed stone surface throughout. This is a feature-packed trail that requires a high level of bike skill. Much of the trail crosses open fields, so windy conditions can increase the level of risk. The trail finishes on a farm access road, which connects both walking and biking trails to the main avenue. From this point, it’s easy to navigate back to the main trailhead.
