| Trail Description |
Trails for every rider experience, from flat and wide to steep and narrow. The main trail follows the creek, with a couple of crossings if you like. Secondary trails shoot off and can be short and steep to flat meadows. Almost all trails are through the hardwood timber of the park. The trails can be closed if the area has had great amounts of rain, as they do get muddy. In most years, less than .5" rain makes for fine riding. 1" or more and it gets pretty muddy. |
| Best Time to Visit |
Spring, summer, fall. Winter can get a bit tacky or icy/snowy. |
| Times to Avoid |
Anytime after a 1" rain. |
| Campground |
Primitive camping is available with a couple of hydrants on the property. Plenty of large trees for high lines, shade is great here. Flat and relatively level camping sites with a few grills spread out. Picnic tables, and a shelter are available. One clean vault style bathroom, no showers. Campground host on site, $10 per night. |
