This is one of the best ways to link up the 'highlight' trails at Devil's Den State Park (namely Devil's Racetrack and Orville). Start at the lower trailhead parking and either pedal up Devil's Racetrack or take the paved road if you want to conserve some energy. Riding down Devil's Racetrack is a must, though.

After pedaling through the cool rock features, the riding gets a bit more cross-country and flowy. It is a bit of a climb up to We Can Take It, but the descent is worth it Orville is rated black, but it's not too technical and all features have a go-around. It's a super fun downhill Smile

There is a river crossing to get back to Devil's Racetrack. You might get your feet wet.
