From the top of Inspiration Loop Trail, within the grounds of Will Rogers State Historic Park, you'll find a kiosk standing post beside an uphill singletrack, branching north around a hillside. The trail is narrow, so be sure to slow or stop for the large amount of hikers in the first mile. Please do not bomb the hikers on the way back down. The local community is wary of bikes here and are easily upset by your passing. Please be respectful. There are those who would like to ban cyclists from the park.
