      A small park with about 4.5 miles of new singletrack and there are plans for about 3 more miles of singletrack in the works. The red –orange trail ( Where’s Waldo Trail) interconnects with the Daffy Trail ( yellow) and the Hunter’s Trail allowing for a variety of loops. Trails are flowy, mostly smooth single track with log and rock features on the side of the trail. This is great fun for beginners and for the more experienced. The trail end at a lovely beach.
