Mountain Biking Richmond Lake Forest Drive
#25 of 44 mountain bike trails in South Dakota
This is a trail of 3 parts: part one is a wide path with a few rolls and turns, part two (near the Youth Camp) is more technical with a small hills, part three (near the Girl Scout Camp) is much more technical with sharp turns, rocks, logs, etc. All three sections are combined into one large loop.

This is a nicely groomed trail set with very little elevation change. It would be perfect for beginners or riders that just want turns and no drops, but doesn't offer a lot of excitement for experienced bikers. Most of the trails are horse trails with a little single track cutting in and out of them. The more technical and hilly terrain is found behind the youth camp. Keep moving or the skeeters will carry you off.
| ThankIt's a great smooth flow ride. I could keep on riding forever!
| ThankIf you are a major single track rider, this trail might leave a little to be desired. But if you are looking for some singletrack within the flat lands of NE South Dakota - this is not a bad trail at all! The begining of sections 2 & 3 are a bit difficult to find without direction.
