Description

This is a very scenic singletrack that can be ridden in either direction. There is not a lot of climbing but you get to enjoy beautiful views of the river as you follow it for the majority of the trail.

The first part of the trail has a few spots that are rocky and can be a little harder to navigate through but this ends after about the first mile or so.

Beautiful river, trail combo.

Great scenic area!

Falls in the background.

This trail has some nice variety.

Log corner.

As you can see, you are right next to the river on this trail. It is quite the drop off at times.

Dam.

Looking up at the falls after the dam.

There is a scenic bench in this area; be sure to sit and take it all in.
