Mostly mellow and easy, Round Pond does have a couple little steeper sections that could potentially be a challenge to some riders, depending on fitness level. It forks off of Mountain trail, and the split is very obvious and signed. Go left to jump on Round Pond trail at the fork.

      Nothing special. Rocky and hilly. Have only ridden it to access other areas from the main gate.
