Trail users making the shortest possible loop with neighboring Sunbridge Hills Conservation Area should use this trail. It also serves as an alternative climb to the top for downhill riders from Jekyll & Hyde.

The bottom is a gradual climb up to a limestone outcropping where the trail flattens and weaves through the rock before emerging at the intersection with High Rider and Mounds. As the trail parallels High Rider and they meet at the same level, please keep to the left and do not go up High Rider as it is a one-way and bike-only trail.

At the intersection of these trails, pedestrians and bikers can continue uphill on Sunbridge Road. This is also where adaptive mountain bikes coming from the traverse and features section of High Rider will make the climb back to the top. Despite what the elevation data suggests, it is a gentle climb back to the top. Trail users that are returning to the conservation area will go left on Comeback at the top of the hill.

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.

The lower portion of this trail is not an aMTB trail. The upper portion is wide enough for aMTBs but is not in it's finished state until Phase 2 of the park construction.
