You can access the Feldmeier Trail near the top of Trail #396 Goldwater Lakes Trail. The first mile or so is a nice twisty ride through the trees. Then comes the fun part

The well-manicured trail goes away and you are faced with an old school mountain biking trail. The trail winds in and out of a creek with some sharp turns and steep descents.

The trail then ends at an intersection with Trail #81 Bannon Creek Trail which gives you multiple options to continue your ride.
