Description
An abandoned Boy Scout camp provides a nice escape to the woods nestled in between neighborhoods and warehouses in north Raleigh. Lots of trails for hiking, but only 1.5 miles allow bikes. Most of the MTB trail is fast, wide doubletrack, with a few sections of slightly steeper and rooty singletrack mixed in. There are a couple of nice lakes in the middle of the park and sections of the trail border both of them. Nothin fancy or technical here, but if you live nearby, its a great place to ride to on the greenway w/out having to mess with the bike rack on the car. BONUS: numerous wildlife encounters here while riding.

Review: This park is a blast. There's a little something for most rides. Beginners can stay along some of the green easy trails while intermediates & even advanced riders will dig the tight & fast descents & rooty climbs. A few trails are labeled no bikes. My experience has been to heed those. The actual bike trails have been plenty of fun.

Review: This is a good trail for beginner to intermediate riders. With short loops and few difficult climbs, it makes for a good, quick ride. I prefer the Beaverdam Trail Loop. Problem is, there are very few trail markings so it can be difficult to stay off the hiking trails if you don't know the trails well.
