Approximately 2 miles of flow...

Starting at the Loki trailhead & small parking lot off of Hwy 210, the singletrack dips into the woods and begins a very gradual 2.2 mile ascent. The roll, flow, and berms may make the ascent barely noticeable for avid riders. The dirt, machine-built singletrack is relatively wide and there are few rocks, and no logs or rooty sections - it's smooth rolling the entire way.

This trail does have frequent wooden boardwalks/bridges that are very well-built, but some have steeper angles, and they can be slippery when wet, so beginners should be cautious.

      If you're in Duluth this trail is a must do. Super flowly and bermtastic. Make sure you ride the loop so you ride this last though.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
