Features Drops/Jumps · Pump Track

Family Friendly An easy, flowy trail with more technical parts. Make sure younger kids and newer mountain bikers can do the distance and are able to do larger hills than what is on Green Lake. Otherwise, kid friendly

Need to Know

Recreation passport required, self-registration available at trailhead (cash only).

Description

The second newest trail (August 26, 2018) with many large berms and big hills is exceptionally well-built and maintained. There are many jumps, some of which look like they came straight from a downhill park. Also, there are quite a few rock jumps and some skinnies of varying lengths. Overall, the trail system is easily the best in the area.

Winn loop was great today. Got on the trail early and didn't see anyone the whole ride. Some parts were a little dry and the gravel was a bit slippery 8mi — 1h 15m
