Easy Smooth surfaces and gentle climbing.

Difficulty Our overall read of how demanding a route is. We score surface roughness, climbing, singletrack, and how far it runs from services. The route publisher's own rating, a lot of busy road riding, or sheer scale can push the tier up, never down.

How we describe routes →

The Delta Watershed and Joe Brown trails loop 8 to 35 km through a surprisingly deep pocket of forest between Delta and Surrey, mostly gravel with easy singletrack threading the trees. Flat, quiet, and shaded, a local secret for hot days.
