Access Info:
Starting in the recreation department parking lot, to access the trails for riding you will need to ride to the left of the large pavilion towards the woods. You will see a wide path, which is part of trail 1. Trail 2 starts immediately to the left once you enter the wooded area. Foot traffic can access the trails in a number of places since there are hiking-only trails built within the outer loop. Please only enter and exit the trails from this location due to surrounding private property
