Mountain Biking Suicide Trail
#536 of 1,004 mountain bike trails in California
If your the daring type and love death defying steep mtb drops, suicide jumps, rock/ boulder gardens and breath taking downhill speeds then this would be the trail. Hidden in the gorgeous mountains of the Agoura Hills/Oak Park this technical trail is named suicide trail for a reason. This trail is not for the beginner and even for the intermediate rider it can be dangerous. We suggest that you have a dh or enduro bike with a good amount of front end travel and full face helmet with protective gear. The only downside to this trail is that theres no shuttle coverage. You either have to get dropped off at the top or hike it up with your bike.

Exit Kanan Rd. off the 101 Fwy and go north on Kanan about 2.7 mi. Turn right on Hollytree Dr. and enter Oak Canyon Park on your left. The bottom trailhead is at Oak Canyon Park. It's kind of hard to find but since it seems to be a popular hiking trail, you could probably ask around. You can either ride it up (expect to hike a bunch of sections) and then back down or if you prefer riding on your bike instead of hiking it, you can start off at the Palo Comado connector trailhead on Doubletree Rd., just east of Clear Haven Dr.. As the name implies, that trail will connect you to the Palo Comado Canyon Trail. Turn left when you get to Palo Comado and head north about 2.75 mi. When you get to a fork where the fire road continues to the right, take the left branch of the fork which is a singletrack. Shortly, you'll hit another fork with a signpost that says China Flat, take the left trail through a tree-covered area. At the next T-junction, again, take the left branch which is a slightly technical uphill climb. At the top, you'll see a gate down the trail, but before you reach this gate, you'll see a trail to the left that starts off with a short climb. Take that trail. About a few hundred feet, you'll see the drop-in onto Suicide Trail. You'll know it when you see it. At the bottom of Suicide Trail is Oak Canyon Park. Just follow the roads to exit the park onto Hollytree Dr. Turn left and ride down until you hit Doubletree Rd. where you'll make a another left which should take you back to the Palo Comado Connector trailhead.
Fun but dangerous trail. Beginner do not apply and for the intermediate it can be dangerous. Lots of high jumps, rock gardens, dangerous downhill speeds and ridiculously steep declines. Think you have what it takes then you have to ride this trail
