These are mainly motocross trails that are linked together by gravel roads and fire trails. There are a lot of fun trails in here as long as you keep an eye out for a few wheel ruts and the occasional dirt bike rider. This is a great place to keep fit and hone your skills on pretty rough and raw trails.
