The Orchard Trail is a wide crushed gravel path that circumnavigates the Trails End Campground. It forms an easy loop for campground users and the public to stretch their legs, whether on the bike or on foot. It is close to the pond on both the north and south sides while winding its way through an orchard, campsites, and gardens.

Optional practice features will be added in late-2023 and 2024 to give people an opportunity to practice their mountain bike skills.

Access Info

The trail can be access at several points from the Trails End Campground road. Trail users coming from other areas can access it most easily via the Hunter's Point Bike Path.

Disclaimer

Please be respectful of campground customers and do not enter occupied sites!
