This skinny single track switchbacks straight up and then goes straight down with lots of fun jumping burms (water bars). Make sure to pause for a moment at the top and take in the panoramic views of the Leavenworth valley and the surrounding orchards.

Ribbed

Leavenworth: Off of Freund

Tres Ambres

Leavenworth area: Freeride Downhill.

Wenatchee River Road

Leavenworth (10 miles West): 8.5 – 2 hours, easy, dirt road.

Xanadu

Leavenworth area: Freeride Downhill. “Crazy, Sick, Fun Relatively easy fire road duo track climb up to the ridge top and then a knarly steep, narrow singletrack descent w/no room for error. Two highly technical sections. The first is a hairpin turn followed by a nasty 6 to 8 foot boulder drop that’s rideable followed a short time later by a huge slick rock that’s super steep w/just enough loose gravel and sand on it to keep you traveling at a good clip before bailing off another steep drop which is also rideable but tricky. If you can find it you will most likely really like it or hate it.”

The Stranger

Wenatchee: Up Mission Ridge Ski area, take the Pipeline trail, and about half way in between there is the trailhead for The Stranger
