Land OwnerNoquemanon Trail Network
After climbing Gurley and crossing Mount Marquette Road, Doctors is your first option of descent. The trail starts relatively flat and slowly becomes steepens as you go. Once the trail gets going downhill the ability to blast through rocks and root at high speeds makes this trail very fun to ride. At the end of the trail a small rock slab and a steep roll down over some roots rounds out the trail.

One of my favorites in MQT. If you’re not a fan of the pedaly chunky section at the beginning, take Mt. Marquette rd. Further up and start at Southern Cross and ride that down into Doctors for a fun sustained dh descent.

Super fun on the Hardtail. Challenging rocks and roots, don’t underestimate this trail, but feel free to open her up in some areas.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
