Bring closed-toe, grippy shoes
Trails are rocky and can be slippery after rain—sturdy footwear improves control and reduces risk of foot injury.

Listen to the safety briefing
A short on-site training covers throttle control and safe passing—follow the guide’s instructions to avoid mishaps.
Secure loose items
Bring a small daypack or zippered pouch—phones and sunglasses can easily fly off on rough sections.
Closed-toe hiking shoes or trail runners
Provide traction and protect feet on rock and mud sections.
Light daypack with water bladder or bottles
