Need to Know
Park Entrance Fee.
Javelinas and other potentially harmful plants and animals live here. Do not feed or approach wildlife, always keep your pets with you and on a leash, secure your food, and dispose of trash in the designated trash bins or take with you.
Know your limits. Prepare for sun and heat. Wear sunscreen, insect repellent and appropriate clothing/hiking shoes.
Drink plenty of water. Your body quickly loses fluids when you're on the trail. Bring a quart of water per hour of activity.
Tell others where you'll be. If possible, avoid exploring alone. Tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return.
Wear a helmet. When mountain biking, check with park headquarters to match the trail to your skill level. Wear a helmet to protect yourself in case of a crash.
Use only your muscles. To protect park resources, no motor vehicles are allowed on the trails.
Description
The first 1 mile of flat terrain serves as a good warm-up for the legs, as you can enjoy the view of the lake.
Mesquite Bend Trail, Switchbacks make this trail a great workout and will get you up close to the mesquite trees for which it's named. Lot of narrow curves, some ups & downs, this part of the trail is the more technical.
White-tail Loop, Walk or ride this loop around the spillway that offers a look at some of the animals like savannah sparrows that prefer grassier habitats. The trees on the perimeter offer hiding places for others, like the javelina. Long flat loop.
Osprey Hill Loop, Climb this singletrack trail to the top of the earthen water tank to get great views of the surrounding area. Steep hills and loose material make this a moderate singletrack for mountain bikes.
