Description: The Camden County College trails seem to be geared towards beginners and intermediate riders, although the newer trails are a bit more challenging. The trails follow a gradual hill down from the college to Rt 42, and runs along a hillside near Rt 42. Although these trails aren't the most challenging, they are fun to ride, and are a good way to get a short ride in after work. The trails are blazed with colored arrows, helping to keep to a specific route, but it's easy to connect any of the trails. These trails are used by various people, so watch out for runners, dirt bikes, and walkers.

Nice trail system. Plenty for the beginner (blue trail), while there are some other trails that are more technically challenging (green, yellow). Also, I spoke to a township police officer that stated that he knows nothing about tickets being issued to bikers.

UPDATE - I called Camden County College today, the operator didn't know who to direct me to about the trails. He put me on hold and asked his boss and he said the trails are open for bikes......so take that information as you will and at your own risk, I'll keep trying to find out who I need to talk to.

We took a quick ride on the blue trail today and ran into a hiker/ fellow mountain biker who said he received a $35 1st warning ticket the other day from the local police. Apparently you are no longer allowed to ride there. Campus security informed us that you can call the college and let them know how important the trails are to us, the decision to close the trails is being reviewed. I will be trying to find out who over there needs to be contacted and I'll post the information as soon as I can.

I often bike and run at this park. I went there on 3/17 to go trail running with my dog and much to my dismay there were bright yellow signs posted all over, NO bikes NO dogs etc, enter at your own risk private property. Not sure if it is enforced.

Nice trail system. Well marked. Easy to follow and cross connect. A good place for beginners to learn skills with some very manageable stunts and technical sections. Drains well. A good place to ride when everything else is swamped. A fair amount of mileage for such a compact setting (New trails added. Almost 7 total miles available). Great to have a place like this so close to a dense urban area. Also open for night riding.
