Mountain Biking Fox Creek Loop
#24 of 319 mountain bike trails in Idaho
The trail is mostly singletrack, some rocky sections, uphills, and fun downhill. Be careful when descending after the two switchback turns going up from the bottom, it is a fast and steep descent and if you goof off it will send you tumbling down and hit a few trees (experienced it) OUCH!!! other than that it is a nice premium trail all mountain bikers should experience.

You can start from the bike path, the intersection would be where YMCA and skate park is. Go north on the bike path and go along highway 75. Keep going until the bike path ends and enter the Hulen Meadows subdivision. Make a left along the bridge where the river runs through. Make a right hand turn at the T-intersection,( you can also park your car there at the dirt parking lot ), and keep going straight until you come to a dead end. There is a PRIVATE road on the right side, you can enter it but remember that it is PRIVATE so respect it. Then you will see the trailhead on your left hand side. The ride starts on the double track, follow the signs for Fox Creek, notice you will see a singletrack going up to the left, ignore it and continue to the ride, it is a one way for mountain biker, so you will be going counter clockwise. Don't worry it will be a good descent on the way down.
Great singletrack close to town!
Thank |This map is showing more than the Fox creek trail. The other loop at the end is actually Chocolate Gulch.
Thank |A nice ride. Seemed harder than it should have been for the distance. Climbing and altitude will do that for those from sea level. Lots of variety from sagebrush to aspens to conifer forest.
Thank |Nice ride! Not extremely technical by any means, but some challenges do exist, such as an extremely steep switchbacking climb, as well as loose gravel on a section of steep downhill. Gorgeous mountain sceny looking west across the valley.
