In some places, the trails have been made intentionally more challenging for those mountain bikers who would like to try to navigate a few obstacles.

In a few other places, no additional obstacle is needed: slippery bridges, steps cut into trails to prevent erosion during the muddy season, and various other potential hazards exist.

Keep in mind there are steeply sloping canyons along these trails, and if you pitch yourself over the side you have a bit of a ways to fall in some places.

Naturally, mountain bikers and hikers are hazards to eachother if the trails are crowded, so you should always be aware of what is happening around you.
