Drummer Hill is not the most beginner friendly set of trails. The Stonewall farm trails may be a better starting point if you're brand new to the sport.
This loop will take you around 1.5hrs depending on how hard you go. It'll give you a good idea of the Drummer Hill trail network. This is a great loop for any intermediate to advanced level riders. The ideal bike for this ride would be a 120-150mm trail bike. That being said, you can definitely get by with a Hardtail or rigid. There are no mandatory drops, but there are plenty of technical lines all over the place.
Variations:
Shorter Loop: Once you get to the end of the Exit 1 trail, take 48T (48 Turns) over far side. (~1hr)
Longer Loop: When 2/3rds done with Far Side, climb up 48T, to old Gilsum rd, and take Drop and Chute back to Far side. (~2hrs)
