Rating: 4.0

“An old railroad bed, some mud and a steep hill to finish.”

— Greg Ko

Overview

Because hunting is allowed on this property and because folks were hunting on this property long before you got here to ride today, THESE TRAILS ARE CLOSED ON SATURDAYS FROM THE LAST SATURDAY OF APRIL THROUGH THE LAST SATURDAY OF MAY AND AGAIN ON SATURDAYS FROM THE LAST SATURDAY OF SEPTEMBER THROUGH THE SECOND SATURDAY OF DECEMBER.

Dogs: Off-leash

Description

For the Down & Dirty Loop you start off on an old railroad bed and head west towards down. Don't go too quick or you'll miss the quick uphill that takes you on the out skirts of a corn field and a low turn. You'll eventually end up back on the railroad bed before you descend down two short, steep drops in the Dirty part of Down & Dirty. Take the rest of the trail and head back to the railroad bed. If you're feeling brave, take the "Locals Only" part, but be careful for the steep cliff on the side.

PRESS RELEASE – FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION The Montour Area Recreation Commission (MARC) has announced a temporary closure of the trail network at the Hopewell Park/Danville Borough Farm property. Trails will be closed to all mountain bikers and other non-hunting trail users from Monday, December 1, through Saturday, December 13 – excluding Sunday, December 7 – to avoid conflicts with the regular antlered and antlerless deer seasons. Bob Stoudt, MARC Director, explained “we’ve been very pleased with how well the new trail system has been received. Bikers, hikers, hunters and other users have been able to share the site since the trails opened in September, but the regular deer seasons present a much greater potential for dangerous accidental conflicts. Though the trails will be open to all on Sunday, December 7, the trails will be closed to all users except hunters on the other days during this period.” Media Contact: Bob Stoudt, MARC Director – (570) 336-2060 or MontrRec@ptd.net Nov 26, 2014
