Mountain biking

This short loop trail provides a steady, periodically steep climb on a dirt road that is sometimes rough in places due to the stomping of the many grazing cows in the area, especially after wet weather. There are fantastic views from the ridge top and a quick descent back to the start. This trail is connected to several others in the park, making it perfect as an add-on for an extended ride.
