Description: Start at the main parking lot. The trail head is at the end of the lot. The main loop is fairly easy, but there are a lot of black diamonds through out. The last 2 are alot of fun and technical

I love Cathedral Pines! Its challenging sometimes but easy in other parts. Well maintained, way better than the Greenbelt.

This trail is not overly technical. It is perfect to get out and take in a good ride. Rated high due to the fact that it is marked very well and maintained by CLIMB. Black Diamonds along the way can change up the pace if you like and add about 3 miles. But if your a beginner or just want to take it easy this place is smack in the middle of Long Island and easy to get to. Plus they have never bothered me for any type of pass. ( Sign states you need green key). Enjoy!

Perfect for an after work spin. This trail allows for a rider to ride over 10 miles or as little as 5. Although no section is extremely challenging, the trail offers rider various section each with a different feel. From the long, swooping roller coaster feel on the Boundary Loop and the steep (although short) climbs of the "3 sisters." The trail is in excellent shape, clean and the large parking lot allows for pre and post ride fun.

Nice ride in the winter. Well maintained trails and fun ride for beginners. Black diamond side trails for advanced climbs. Nice tight banked turns with some jumps thrown in. Being a local I will ride here often. Almost as nice as Bent Creek & Tsali in North Carolina.

This trail starts off with some easy but fast singletrack. Well marked & well groomed. Then you come across some real good black diamonds off the loop. Boundry line, bartlett rd. & I think its called burn & burm are the name of 3 blk diamonds that are awesome. Right after the bartlett trail theres an unmarked turnoff, thats the burn & burm trail. I really enjoyed this trail & will frequently ride here. Its a great alt. To rocky point which is also an awsome trail. Bigs props to the climb guys, they did an great job here!

The trail is actually in Middle Island. Great tight twisty 5.8 mile loop. Great fun intermediate diamond cutoffs!
