Description: The trail is great for those with at least a little experience handling obstacles such as rocks and logs, as it is full of them. The really nice thing about this trail is it starts easy and gets progressively more challenging throughout its length. If you're a beginner, you can turn off and climb out or repeat the easy and/or intermediate sections. If you're more skilled (or hard headed) you get a break before the rough stuff the next time around. I've replaced my rear triangle, dérailleur, tires (to say nothing of tubes), etc. because of this trail; it will beat you and your bike up.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

Good trail, worth the ride especially if you are with in a day trip distance, but there are other trails in the region so you could make it part of a weekend package or if you just want to make it a one day ride during the weekend kind of thing. Some decent technical work on it- you wouldn't want to make it your first bike trip of the season if you don't stay in cycling shape all winter. If you ride it hard it will keep you hard.

Make sure to check out the Over Lode Trail on the east side of the park. SWEET RIDE AND FAST!!!

This trail is a favorite of mine. WORBA has added several new trails and they are all just as technical and tough as the originals. The creek bottoms are extremely rocky and I have dumped the bike numerous times if I don't have enough speed going into it. Awesome trails!

Decent trail for both the moderately experienced and for the novice as there are two distinct sets of trails you can ride. One is the basic "I just cut the grass" fast trail with lots of elevation and speed and the other is the WORBA singletrack with good roots, lots of rough rocks, stream crossings (although it was bone dry this week), and enough elevation to make your muscles sore but not enough to make the determined MTB walk. Worth the trip from southern Wisconsin but keep in mind there is a $4 daily trail pass fee and a $7 in state, $10 out-of-state park pass fee.

Similar Trail: This is my first Wisconsin trail but I'd really recommend riding in NC - more variety, numbers and FREE.

been a long time since I rode there but from what I can remember it is just an absolutely awesome set of trails. i was rather green at the time and didn't have the best bike in the world but I made it work. Over all just and awesome set of trails.
