Description
Great trails back there, apparently hand made by some guy, took like 4 years. Some sick single track, nice jumps, big drops, fun stuff to play on everywhere. Highly recommended, it was a blast. There's a good map posted here:

Review: One of my favorite rides around. Easiest way to explain it is that the trails were made for bikes. Good flow, some tech sections but nothing overwhelming, bits that interest everyone. 20 degrees the other day and we had the place to ourselves. Frozen ground probably shredded the tires a little but so fun to ride! As things thaw will need to be careful not to damage the trails

Review: For March, LLF is in pristine shape. Very little mud, and Hogboy (NEMBA) has been out cleaning blowdowns and trails. Since last year, LLF has had several new small trails and bridges built by NEMBA, and this place is a GREAT way to kill 2 hours. A little bit of everything is floating around here...

Review: Awesome set of trails, did the 4.3 mile loop and loved it so we continued riding and did most of the cut through trails also. Very quick trails that are well kept with some board walks and jumps throughout.

Review: I can't help but think that the two cats below didn't find most of what makes this place so awesome... there's some great dips, rollers, hucks, rocks, and birdge sections to this trail. Get ahold of some NEMBA cats and check it out!

Review: I concur with "remedy" this place is fun for an after work ride only in the dark, there are some cool little technical sections but it general its not that exciting.. further up the road Lowell Dracut is good, as is Harold Parker or the totally illegal white trail at the fells....

Review: I had to write a review in all fairness to those of you who may be from "out of town" and looking for a good place to ride. There is NO WAY this could ever be considered a great ride. It is OK at best. It is an extremely easy cross-country ride and after about an hour becomes relatively boring. It's OK after work for a quick ride. The fact that Single Tracks has this ranked as thier #1 riding spot is a complete joke. Anyway, if you're in the Boston area go to Harold Parker or the Fells for some nice cross-country. Go to Lynn or Vietnam for some great technical riding. If you want to ride closer to this trail take the extra 10 minutes and go to Great Brook or Russell Mill.

Review: Great riding! I rode the yellow loop clockwise and it was fantastic. It's all essentially singletrack with super flow. Some built features (bridges, jumps) that make it fun. The blue connectors look like fun too. Didn't get to try em tho. New info kiosk at parking area had maps if you need em but it's so small that I wouldn't even bother unless you want it for reference

Review: I like. Mucho. Good fast single track. Some places describe it as fireroads but it's really just singletrack at least around the outside loop. There are some big hits built into some of the blue trails that shoot across the yellow loop. Maybe next week I'll go check those out. Rode the loop counter-clockwise but I'd recommend going the other way. Seems like there are some better features in that direction. Keep your eyes up for those faded yellow blazes.

Review: This is SICK buff ST riding New England style. The Yellow Loop is 4 miles and goes around the park, with the Blue trails acting as connectors. It's never so big that you can't find the yellow, so just explore! As mentioned below, there's something for everyone and you can do it on a hardtail, though some features (drops, skinnies) may be better suited for some armor and a FS rig. KILLER RIDING!

Review: If you have not ridden here, RIDE HERE! Had so much fun yesterday came back again. Tried to follow the Blue trail, but it isn't always well marked so gave up and just rode trails. Final verdict, just ride!!! So many fun fast twisty singletrack to enjoy. Came across a bunch of old car chassis. Rode the power lines across from Landlocked and it led into Paint Mine Reservation - not much there.

Review: Good entry point with parking in Lexington, at the intersection of Turning Mill Rd and Mountain Rd. FUN quick winding singletrack. Varied terrain, but nothing technical. A bunch of bridges (nothing super narrow so good for all to ride) and came across two built jumps. There are to marked trails (yellow and blue) with a bunch of singletrack running between. I rode the yellow for my first ride, will def be back to ride again and explore other trails. Giving a 4 for the trails and the fun!
