Description

This trail can be ridden out and back, as part of a larger loop or as a shuttle ride from Mt. Rose Highway (Hwy 431) to Tunnel Creek Cafe. It is relatively flat and suitable for beginners until you get several miles south from Mt Rose Highway. Enjoy several stream crossings and great wildflowers in the early summer.

Great trail for the kids too. Took my almost 8 year olds with minimal trail experience and it was great.
