Danimal Middle is an old trail that has seen a lot of work in recent years. It is one of the arteries in the Westside, connecting trails such as Three Birds and 99'er. It is also a much more pleasant ride than Lower Sproatt. A challenging climb in both directions, Danimal Middle is a fun trail but not worth riding on its own. Combine with trails from the Flank via Industrial Waste, or follow up with Danimal North.

Access Info

The trail is access by riding up Stonebridge Drive. Right before a creek crossing, the trail winds away on your left. Alternatively, look for the well marked junction with Lower Sproatt.
