Description: Little Bennett Park has over 20 miles of natural surface trails - however, about half of them are off limits to mountain bikers. This park has a lot of tough hills to climb and quick downhills. There are 10+ separate trails for MTN biking within the park, so it is easy to change the length of your ride if needed. Where some trails say you should wait 24 hours after rain to ride, however, due to the heavy foliage on this trail you will need to wait 48-72 hours to ride this trail. In addition, keep in mind that this trail is shared with horses, so watch the trail for some little treats they leave behind.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

Did a MORE night ride here. Lots of doubletrack and wide grassy trails. Area gets lots of horse traffic. No major climbs or decents. I was always looking for some jumps, but there were none. No logs and no dabs.

DO NOT TAKE KINGSLEY ROAD - TAKE CLARKSBURG ROAD (it will take you to the same spot) However, Kingsley road is NOT actually a public road. I just completed this trail over Easter weekend. The trail itself could be good, however, in many places it has been destroyed by horses that used the trail this spring when it was wet. There are quite a few incredibly tough hills, but unfortunately the down hills are not very entertaining. Not technical for MTN biking as I believe that the trail is made mostly equestrian riding.
