This is a very tough, challenging ride. My family and I hiked it on Sunday, and I rode it the next evening after work. Ride this trail on a weekday if you can. I saw 3 hikers and 3 bikers on a Monday night - sweet! Once you're about .5 miles in on the Bergen Peak trail get set for some granny-gear climbing and very difficult technical sections. I suck at waterbars anyway, and this ride helped cement that fact. Lots of steep sections, so you'd better have the legs AND the lungs. The Too-Far trail downhill is fantastic, and worth the pain. Zoomy, flowy through the woods, and then technical rocks and switchbacks. Keep your speed under control, as there are a few surprises. If you like tough climbing and a technical challenge, then this trail is for you.

I'm glad I tried this on a weekday with little traffic because I didn't feel so bad blocking the trail. I am obviously not Mr. Hardcore but there were very many technical obstacles there . Even on the downhill, i frequently had to get off my bike. IMHO this one is just for the experts. On the bright side, there were some really great views and the trail is well shaded so it doesn't get that hot.

This is one of my favorite rides on the planet. To me, this is an almost perfect trail. Great forest, the terrain is just challenging enough. The view at the top is awesome. If you want, you can come in from the back side.

Once you get out of the Elk Meadow area and start the climb up; you can really begin to appreciate this trail. A great, sometimes technical climb all the way to the peak and some fun, sometimes technical downhill. You're shaded by the trees for the most part so bringing survival supplies on this trail is not really necessary;)

Great climb and as you get to the top the trail gets tougher and steeper. Try to ride this on weekdays though because the park gets really crowded on the weekends.
