Loop trail is an easy, fun trail that includes sections of dirt road, double track and, in places, what can best be describes as wide singletrack. The surface is generally smooth with no significant obstacles and the elevation changes are gentle, albeit with a few short steeper sections. The Loop is suitable for all skills levels and is favored by families newly minted novices. It traverses a beautiful and varied landscape with some open meadows in the south and an enchanted forest section in the north.

Access Info

Loop runs conveniently from the parking area at Mountain View Farm, loops north through a forested section from where one can access the green Cupcake trail and the more challenging Poundcake trail, after which it turns west and south to join up with the northern end of Bemis, from where it returns back to Mountain View Farm. From Loop you can also access the famous Coronary and Coronary Bypass, as well as Fence Line, Pastore Point and Bog Meadow.
