Description
The Park trails are open to all users. The main MTB trail is in the south end of the park. Park in the 2nd lot on your left as you enter the park. The trail head is directly to the back of the parking lot. Travel South on the trail until you come to a power line easement go across the easement and the main trail is directly in the woods. It is about a 2 mile loop blazed white. There are other trails in the park as well open to bikes but the white loop is currently the only one built purposely for MTBs.
Notes: The trail system is being renovated as a joint venture between Prince Trails and Streams and MORE. The goal is to have about 6 miles of flowing natural surface trails in the park.
