Fast, fun, and easy. Well maintained trails that cut around the park and make the most of the limited terrain. If you live in the area, this is a great spot to do repeat loops and get in some good mileage on dirt.

Fast, easy little trail. The sections closest to the field tend to stay muddy for a long time after it rains - be sure to check the parking lot kiosk to make sure the trails are open for riding.

Nice little beginner-friendly trail. This might be the easiest true singletrack trail I've ever ridden, so yes it's very beginner friendly. Still, it was pretty fun and had a couple of interesting spots. It's about 2.6 miles in length, so yeah, it's short.

disregard previous reviews and any maps you've seen. This trail has been cut back to just over two miles due to the Parks dept. new building and the water treatment plant taking over the back hill. RAMBO needs to do something up here because this trail has gone to pot. Big ruts no good flow and short, all I can say is it is close to me and gives me a decent workout when I'm short on time. Freeride area has been torn down for just over a year now.

Ok, not real packed down. Never found the freeride area, I guess its gone?

This trail is reopened as of Jan 2010, been riding on it the past two weeksish, and open other than after heavy rain. Decent trail, mostly beginner trail but some decent rocks and roots.

Went out to the trail this morning and it is closed until further notice. The bridge over the creek back by the old Free Ride area has washed out from this weeks heavy rains. I spoke to a RAMBO Rep and he said it is now up to the county to either move it upstream and or repair it.

Good trail for an old and slow guy like me. I last rode Wednesday night and saw that the Freeride section has been bulldozed down...and on some of the Forums I have read some people thougth the Trail was shut down too. This is untrue...The MTB Trail is still open... I called Central Park this morning to confirm that we are still good to go.... but the Freeride is gone for good.

Fairly good singletrack with some technical spots and some very easy beginner areas. Good trail to get skills and endurance back up to par for bigger and better rides. This is a day of the week directional trail so check the kiosk to make sure you are going with the flow.

great trail. there was a beginners and an intermediate trail. i did the intermideate. it was cool one water crossing (unless it wet) and not much technical stuff. the freeride park was pretty cool. i went to watch and ended up doing some jumps. there were some kids a little older than me who were freeriding. they helped me out a little and got me started. (i think ill stick with the trail) all and all its very nice.

This is a fun 4 mile trail to ride on. It has been about 6 months since I rode it. Yes, it is on a Frisbee golf course but that has never been a problem for me. There is not very many technical areas on the trail; it’s just a fun ride you can do fast. The parts throughout the woods are a blast. I found the trail in the open field to be boring because it just zigzags in and out. This is still a good trail to build up your stamina on. If you have the guts go check out the freeride area. There is a lot of fun stuff to play on and a rather large gap jump. On certain days of the week the trail goes clockwise and counterclockwise. You will just have to read the sign. A helmet is required to ride.

Easy single tracks with almost 0 technical. Trail needs better blazing at some points and more maintenance :-) Park is overpopulated with freesbie golfers and kids, so be prepared to stop at any moment.

The trail is a very narrow patch of hard pack that winds its way along rolling hills and through nice sections of forest. You just have to accept your riding on a Frisbee golf course for a large portion of it. The free ride park is awesome; I would love to know when some of the better riders show up.

I ride this a few times a week. Well maintained by RAMBO and they hold annual time trials. Has one of the only free-ride parks in the area. Also, night riding is allowed up until 11 PM. Day directional trail with excellent signage.
