Beginner 95% and intermediate 5%, 1/2 mile MTB trail which is a bi-directional singletrack that is a fairly straight trail with a couple slightly technical spots that might be a little challenging to a lesser skilled rider. The trail tread is mostly packed dirt mixed with a few rocky sections. There is no preferred direction but it is an easier ride in the north to south direction. The trail is a good connector trail for several fun easier loops.
