A nice loop around Long Pond. Great trail for beginner mountain bikers and first timers to get a taste of mtb on. For a sweet long ride, start at Otis 151 parking and ride south looping the Long Pond and head back north to Otis. This is a long ride with ample challenging sections along the way. If your are riding with first timers park on the lake at Goodwill Park.

This loop is also part of the Moraine hiking trail.
