Beginner Loop

Dogs Leashed

E-Bikes Allowed

This yet to be named trail is intended as a short, 1/2 mile beginner skill development loop near the 4-mile parking lot trailhead. It is at the top of Black Bear Mt. Bike Trail where it intersects Middle Ridge Road (Forest Rd. 801) and Middle Ridge Trail. When on the road facing Black Bear, look to the left and the entrance is there. The trail makes a lollipop loop around the ridge top and can be ridden in either direction. There are some small features to allow for progression of skills, all of which have ride arounds. Future connectivity off the back side of the loop to Middle Ridge Trail is planned as well.
