Mountain Biking Flowing Park Loop
#798 of 1,380 mountain bike trails in Colorado
Flowing Park (#715.1A) makes a lariat with the Indian Point (#715) trail for a 14 mile high altitude ride. Follow tall trail marker posts for the first 2.3 miles and you'll reach the trail junction. Clockwise is the recommended route. The trail will get faint in some places but usually you can see more trail markers in the distance. For the first half of the ride it is helpful to know that you're aiming out towards the edges of the Mesa - so when in doubt over the trail, aim towards views. The middle portion of the trail is filled with lava rock and can be quite tough and anxiety inducing to ride through. Take a hike to Indian Point once you reach the junction and enjoy those views as well. The last 4 miles are some of the most entertaining. At the cattle fence hang a right.
