This trail is best for moderate-to-experienced mountain bikers. This trail goes through the woods behind the Welcome Center and meanders over creeks and up small hills behind Shelter #2 before turning back and passing the former campground area. It eventually comes out at the trailhead across from the soccer fields. You can get lost if you do not always go straight across when intersecting horse trails. You may often encounter detours on this trail as volunteers work to combat erosion and make trail improvements. Because volunteers maintain the trail there is no structure to changes that are made. Riders should realize that dangerous sections could occur at any point, so you need to dismount your bike and walk whenever you feel your skill level may not be up to the challenge.
