It's a one way fast, flowy, smooth trail. It's also beginner friendly. In November 2020 it was expanded to be a 2+ mile loop. This trail has some steep drops to look out for at beginning of trail, and a couple big dips. Otherwise, it is small rollers, little climbs, a few berms and jumps, but mainly fast flow.

Access Info

Ride sidewalk into south most paved loop. Trailhead is directly off the sidewalk

      Been a little bit sandy last couple times out. Looks like it should rain some next week so hopefully will clear up soon. Definitely still rideable just watch out in some sections.

      Great trail for beginner to intermediate riders! A relatively short loop that only takes a couple minutes at trail speed. Best ridden after a period of no rain as the soil is clay and takes forever to dry up and reshape. Has a 2 wooden drops, some small jumps and berms, and overall good flow. This trail also connects to the trails on the other side of Highway 59/69.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
