Burklyn is the trail where the mountains turn to rolling fields, and moss-covered rocks turn to wildflowers in abundance. Perched on top of the Darling Hill Ridge, this beginner‑friendly singletrack loops around the Inn at Burklyn, providing riders with a beautiful view of the surrounding scenery. The multidirectional trail features flowy switchbacks, grassy meadows, and a wooden boardwalk winding through a canopied forest.
