“A flowing ride on the west side of the Forks of the River area w/ some fun berms and quick descents.”

— Ethan Beyer
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

A nice alternative to riding a long stretch of greenway to get across Forks of the River. This trail is not very technical, though some exposed rock in a few places proves a nice test for Beginning to Intermediate riders.

Heading west to east is primarily sloped downwards, with the few climbs being fairly easy. Heading east to west, the trail rides a little slower.

Overall, this trail has some fun berms and provides a great alternative to either end of the wildlife management area.
