Mountain Biking Culvert Trail

*****   Add a review
#176 of 1,004 mountain bike trails in California
#2,510 in the world

The trail is mostly downhill and a lot of switchbacks and berms with some jumps thrown in if you choose to take them ending at the road. Cross the road and about 200 yards on the right is the Confluence Trail.

    Great flow. Really dry and dusty in the summer but definitely worth riding.

    Holly switchbacks batman! They've done some great work on this trail with the berms on the switchbacks. The tunnel is a unique section to run through. Definitely dark through there. Really fun downhill !
