Something for everybody. Nice single track. Roots rocks short descents, a couple little drops too! Keep your eyes open for alt routes!

    My first time here and it was great. I am a biginer. It has from biginer to almost expert. Some nice drops. Was leaf covered in some areas. But overall it has become my new stomping ground/practice ground. Some hikers with dogs,kids, a few hippies..

    Fun place to ride, nothing crazy, plenty of parking. There were a few fun tricky sections to keep in interesting. Lots of walkers and hikers there so just be polite and everyone gets along.

    This trail is rated as beginner but nothing could be further from the truth. I frequent 6 mile run and I find this trail to be significantly more difficult to traverse than 6 mile run. Loads of rocks, drop offs that can seriously hurt a beginner, many logs, oh and did I mention LOADS OF ROCKS?!!! This place is cool for a short ride if you have some mtb experience. If you do not this is a horrible place to start.

    This is wonderful location to take a beginner. You run the gamit of wide gravel, single track, roots, rock, punchy short climbs that will require proper gear selection. Also, this location is a great spot to practice a new technique without fear of a huge crash. Finally, there are so many trail that wrap around each other, through each other and they always seem to return back to the trailhead. Overall, a nice spot to work up a sweat.

    Not to bad we did a few different trails yellow,red,green,and blue very good work out and few obstacles up and down hill 2-3hrs riding before you complete every trail.

    Mixed bag. Depends on which way/trail you ride. I've been going here for years. Good trails here! Be nice to people and they'll be nice too! Have fun riding!

    Do not ride your bike here, it is illegal. Poaching trails is not a way to win hearts and minds. Find out how you can help to get the ban lifted by getting in touch with JORBA
