Horn Park might be short in distance, but it offers a different experience from the other trails in the area. This place is meant to be a "playground" of sorts, which offers unique features to ride in a small area. Intended to be more difficult/advanced, this makes this trail perfect for "sessioning" to improve your skills You'll find wood bridges, rock gardens, tight twisty turns, and a few skinnies. This park is easily connected to nearby Gooseberry Park too. This trail will likely be groomed all winter for fatbike use as well!

There are a few low trees, so watch your head!

Access Info

There are 2 entrances, one right off the road, and another from underneath the underpass, roughly 150' west of the road.

 Mostly good condition for fat biking but in some areas where the river flooded there is jagged broken-through ice that you'll need to be wary of.
