Description

This rooty, bumpy trail can be either ridden as an out-and-back or as a part of a loop when combined with country roads. Along its length are a few side trails with various challenges to make things interesting. There is plenty of parking on Lake Road at the trail's starting point. Keep in mind that this trail is a popular fishing location with locals, so be cautious and look out for pedestrians.
