Goshen loop is the main loop that connects all the trails on the far side of Spy Run Creek. Rated as easy, it's a relaxing ride through a smooth forest trail that's perfect to get a young MTB cadet hooked on the sport. The shallow creek crossing on the way there gives an extra thrill

There aren't many technical trail features, (TTFs) but there's great joy in riding it quickly and the real gems are the connecting trails!

Access Info

Go west down the road across from the parking lot entrance and enter Ridge Run. Keep right until you reach the clearly marked creek crossing.

      The southern end of Goshen is open again. Go under the new entrance road bridge, and follow signs for Goshen Bayou. The loop south of the bridge now goes counter clockwise.

      The southern tip of Goshen Loop will be closed into 2024 due to road construction. There is a re-route onto Easter that cuts off the closed portion.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
