Mountain Biking Devou Park

#1 of 108 mountain bike trails in Kentucky
#395 in the world

This trail is a great singletrack trail that is a out and back currently however it is being worked on daily and it get longer everytime I ride it. The out is a begins with a pretty steep climb the level off when you get near the top with some great switchbacks and nice bermed turns. With the climb being pretty steep on the way out it should go without saying that the trip back down is very fast and fun. Some areas can be a bit technical but the trail is well groomed. Great trail!
Phase I & II and part 1 of III complete. I &II West of Sleepy Hollow, and III is to the East. Incineratore, described above, leads to Bates-Coombs, a main loop flowing around the top of Western high ground. There is also Back Bowl, esentially a side loop from Bates, wich drops to base of hill and up again, and Train surfer (a 1 mile direct return to switchbacks and exit.) Plus two connectors.
Of Phase III There is access from dirt lot near the golf course off Montague rd, or Devou rd near Montagure. with at least 3 miles complete, and can be connected into loops of several lengths. maps and info at devouparktrails.com

Rider questions

Q: Does this trail system only offer downhill courses? If so how do you get back to the top once you reach the bottom?
A: feck, it is more of a trail system then a downhill course. since all the trails are connected and wind around one another, most have some up and down hill. the highest elevation is most likely at the top of pigs tail, if i had to guess. it still is very fun and check it out!
