The entire Picture Rock trail is a solid intermediate level ride, but the couple miles gently flow along the hillside and is great for beginner mountain bikers. And as an added bonus, there's a really cool stone picnic table (picture rock stone, donated by the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance) 2 miles in - perfect for a quick snack. After the table, the trail gets steeper and rockier. Intrepid riders may want to explore more, it's easy to turn around when you've had enough.
