Route that goes up to the Roc de Neret along a tortuous track, which gets worse as we gain altitude. Once at the top, from where we will enjoy privileged views of the Sant Antoni reservoir and the Pyrenees in the background, we will begin the descent along a broken path with a lot of stone and sandbanks to the entrance of the Slick Rock, a mythical descent for its stone slabs in which you have to follow the white marks painted on the ground. Then we will combine technical terrain trails until we enter the dry ravines of the Abeller, Bartotrail and Dalton‘s.
The entire Antenes area has very good drainage, even on rainy days. However, after days of high humidity due to water or intense fog, we can find mud at the end of the route from kilometer 11, where it goes into the ravines. Since it is possible to avoid this part by road, we present an alternative track.
On days of heavy rain we may find that the stone slabs do not have the proper grip with the consequent risk of falling.
This route presents good conditions throughout the year.
On days when the ground is wet and compact, due to rain and humidity in previous days/weeks, the best grip conditions occur.
Extreme caution must be taken in the curves, at some points the sandstone terrain can present sandbars that can play tricks on us.
Give way to other cyclists and walkers, warn of your arrival in time and slow down.
Do not scare the animals by shouting or making unnecessary noise. You are in their environment.
Take your dog on a leash, especially on the busiest trails.
Respect the signs or fences of private property or hunting grounds.
Follow the established routes, don’t take shortcuts.
Control speed and braking, avoiding skids that erode the ground unnecessarily.
Do not litter.
Avoid clayey areas on muddy days due to rain or fog. Respect the route symbols.
Check your bike before you go out and always carry a repair kit.
Use a helmet, wear gloves, goggles and protection.
Know your physical condition and choose the route based on it. Always evaluate the gradient, not just the distance.
Keep an eye on weather forecasts, they can be changeable.
It is recommended to do the routes with GPS navigation support. The routes are not physically signposted.
It is important to be insured in the practice of mountain biking, which is why we recommend obtaining a federal license or private accident insurance.
