Description

From the Upper Jolley Trail, take a right on the Prendergast Hill Trail. This is a narrow singletrack with sections of exposed trail that will challenge intermediate riders.

Prendergast Hill offers a short, intermediate climb with many viewpoints along the way. At this time, this is a spur trail, so when you arrive at the top, turn around and enjoy what you just climbed up, heading back down.

Most of the climbing on Prendergast Hill is moderate, with a few tough switchbacks thrown in.
