Mountain Biking Badger Creek South Trail

****   Add a review
#18 of 90 mountain bike trails in Kansas
#2,571 in the world

This trail takes you up along the edge of the open prairie of tall grass then into the woods . You will ride the hillside along Badger Creek . About 1/2 mile the trail splits . I like to take the trail to the right . This trail winds further up the hill . This part of the trail is mostly dirt , rocks , and roots with some nice technical challenges . Getting deeper into the woods this trail has some nice flat rock challenges and small creek crossings . Now getting to the half way point you will hit some short fast downhill leading to the tricky flat rock bluffs . On the back side of the trail you will ride down some rugged rocks and cross gnarly creek beds . Now heading back you will ride through the large boulders . Great landscape to ride . Getting near the trailhead to your right you will see the low water bridge . Great view from the trail . The trail doubles back to the trailhead . The Kansas Trail Council really did this trail right . Come test your skills .

Getting there
Fall River Lake is located off HWY 400 between HWY 99 and HWY 75. You will see the sign for Fall River State Park at road Z50. Turn north and follow to the first road and turn right. This is Lake Road. Follow Lake Road over the Fall River Lake Dam to the first road and turn left. You will see a sign that has Quarry Bay Area. Follow the road up the hill past the maintenance building on your right to the first road and turn left. This is Badger Creek Road. Follow Badger Creek Road a few miles till you see the large low water bridge. About 1/8 of a mile before the bridge on the right is the trailhead . It is marked with a small totem of stones . It is hard to see until you are right on top of it . So keep your eyes open and enjoy the ride .
