#15 of 96 mountain bike trails in Iowa

#2,122 in the world

First section is between the parking lot and main (Volksweg) Trail. This is fun to take downhill entering off the trailhead close to the lot. The main trail network weaves in and out of a doubletrack loop. Easy to go down a poorly maintained trail, but the main singletrack trails are pretty-well maintained. I'll try to GPS in the trails in the near future.
