Description: Technical singletrack in native upland burr oak forest. Many intersecting trails of varying difficulty with optional "trail features" alongside main trails. This is a relatively small parcel of land, hence there are many seemingly unorganized interconnecting trails. The local mt. bike club is continuously maintaining and improving the system.

Terrific trail system for such a small park. Some challenging obstacles on the black routes and plenty of green trails for young families. I've been there twice and cannot believe it is always quiet!

Wow! What a neat trail system. I am from the area and didn't even know there was a Beverly Park. I guess it was just woods that were protected b/c it has native and rare Bur Oak trees. Two years ago a group (LAMBA) got together and cleaned-up the area to make some fantastic inner city trails. They are always improving the layout and I am never disappointed when I ride there. They have about 5 miles of interconnecting loops. The trails are bi-directional b/c of the limited land available. There are not any long climbs but some nice steady grades for a good cardio workout. For those that like a little challenge, there are natural and man-made obstacles! The people of LAMBA are always itching to show newcomers some nice routes to take; just post up on their forum at www.lambaonline.com that you are coming the Cedar Rapids for a ride. Keep in mind, it is not a large state or national area so take different routes to keep it interesting.
