Description: There are 5 major trail loops, but all have trails that interconnect. I've ridden here many times and can say that I've never done the exact same thing yet. There is about 80 miles worth of total trails. A lot of singletrack, some farmers fields, some dirt/fire road trails. Excellent place to ride. Go here with lots of time!

Fair Hill is one of my favorite places to ride. The trails are great and you can eaily get in a 25 mile loop. Not very technical and the climbs aren't big either. Good maps available through MD state parks.

Possilble Epic. Many opportunites to get lost and do a lot of miles. Trails are not clearly marked and crisscross each other many times. There is a race here, so go for the preride and you will not get lost. Many access points and riding options. Trails are not technical with no major rock gardens, no drop offs. Can be real fun with someone who knows where they are going. Otherwise, you are stopping every .25 mile trying to figure out where to go.

BEAUTFUl perfect trails. this is the place you can just spend the whole day at and every weekend and ride a diffrent trail everyday. the yellow trail section is my favortie. its got trails going every dirction and you can just wonder around. its not that hard to find your way around here but i would recamend getting a map any way cuz it will help you find the best trails. and make sure you dont miss the big race in july http://www.masuperseries.com/2010/index.php?view=details&id=16:delaware-trail-spinners-fair-hill-classic&option=com_eventlist&Itemid=12

very large grounds a lot of riding available. disappointed with the level of riding there. very easy not to much technical riding. good place for a beginner to learn. wouldn't necessarily ride it again if up to me.

There's about everything here except the highly techncial. There is tons of singletrack, but it is interspersed with lots of doubletrack and dirt road so it's not always easy to devise a good loop of singletrack. Most of the singletrack through the trees is nice. The singletrack through the meadows is scarcely better than the roads. This is a good place to put in the miles if you're not too fussy a singletrack purist.

I've ridden here a couple of times. So far, the yellow trail seems to be the best, fast up and down single track. Rode there last Sunday and had a great time!

You want to put miles on your legs go here. Lots of carriage roads. Nice true single track cut for Mtn bikes. A bit confusing to link up so find a local.
