The Red trail was added to the mountain in 2012 to provide a less extreme but just as fun option as doing the black run.

The trail winds its way down and across the open hillside with fast straights, berms, jumps and rough rock gardens.

Black DH
Built in 2007 by the Scottish Downhill Association primarily as a race track, its origins hint at the challenges that await.
