Trail von den Antennen etwas anspruchsvoll, leider werden bei der Abfahrt viele Höhenmeter auf breiten Waldstrassen vernichtet! Aber das ganze Gebirge ist mit Trails voll...Mit einem Blick auf die Karte (und nach rechts und links schauen!!) kann man fast die komplette Abfahrt auf tollen Trails zurücklegen! Auffahrt Blick in das Landesinnere/ Abfahrt...Blick auf Marbella Malaga und das Meer
