Description

Hobbit trail connects Van Horn Park to 4 Corners via fast rolling terrain for much of it's length. This trail is fun to ride in both directions. On the Van Horn Park side, the terrain is very steep, offering a grueling ascent or fast tight turns on the descent. The forest is a mix of aspen groves and dark timber. Patches of snow can linger into June in the shadier spots.
