Event Description:

A full day of trail activities including running, biking, yoga, music and more! You will not find another event like this, it is truly a unique gathering at a gem of a location. If you are not familiar with the Graham Swamp Mountain Bike Trail, you are in for a treat! And a challenge. This trail is the most challenging trail in Flagler Co, possibly even in Florida. There are lots of roots, rocks, steep descents & climbs, soft sand, quick switchbacks...you get the point. Take it all in, it's incredibly beautiful too.
