Description: There is not a set trail or route just ride on the paved trail and keep an eye out for singletrack. There is quite a few trails here mostly beginner but there are a few tough spots nothing real hard though. A great place to work on speed.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by ButchA on May 5, 2010
I can ride my MTB to Deep Run Park from my house.... The place is okay, but nothing really spectacular. Try to avoid the paved paths at all times. There's just way too many moms walking with baby strollers, old ladies walking Muffy - their yappy little Terrier. At the first sign of a trail, take it and head into the woods. There are a few tight turns and maybe a technical section or two, but like I said, nothing to really rave about. It's more designed for new MTB'ers who just got a bike from Target or Wally World.
Similar Trail: Rockwood Park is similar, but at least it has more to offer than Deep Run Park.

Nothing to technical here...I wouldnt go out of my way to ride it...but it is a great place to bring someone who is new to the sport
Similar Trail: Pocahontas, poor farm park

good for XC guys who want to improve their speed over mildly bumpy terrain, or for learning some mild technical skills. a few rooty sections, two roughly 30 foot long sections that are very rocky, and a few areas that are prone to collecting standing water when it rains. also good for practicing log crossings and stuff like that. the it's generally pretty good for unwinding at the end of the day or for giving a friend a taste of mountain biking. if you have to drive to get to the trail, you might as well go to powhite or the james river loop of trails
Similar Trail: Powhite, the James River loop of trails (reedy creek, buttermilk, bell isle, northbank, ect)

This "trail" is really a waste of time. There are very few cleared trails and nothing to even give a first-timer a quad burn. I had to leave and go to Powhite to get a workout!
