“The most-fun part of the Hawk Loop area at LNSP.”

— Logan Watts
Driving DirectionsGPX File

Dogs Unknown

Features -none-

Like all of the trails in LNSP, this loop reverses direction every year. Watch the signs at the beginning of each loop.

Description

This loop is fun to ride in both directions offering some classic LNSP swooping corners and fast breakaways. It's another easy loop, but can challenge riders as the speed increases.
