Review: Nice, flowy trail. No huge challenges technically or aerobic effort, but can have a good workout with effort. Real tight in spaces and not for the faint of heart (or utterly reckless).

Review: This is indeed a fun trail that is on the short and windy side--they pack a lot of trail into the area. I would rate at 3.5. I would not rate above Big Cedar or Cameron Park (as it is on the Texas list on the site), but it flows well and has enough elevation change for variety. There are a number of roots on some of the loops and portions that require focus, but there is nothing overly difficult out there.

Review: This is a very solid, although short, trail. For any intermediate+ rider, the terrain is challenging and varied. Do not take a newbie unless very athletic. My April ride was dry, not too hot not humid. The high winds of the day had no impact. On a Sunday I saw few riders, no hikers and only two bozos. The trail is laid out as one-directional singletrack, alternating direction on current days. There are options to change your distance and difficulty via loops that met and crisscross in the few open areas. The vast majority is in the woods and is quite tight so don't expect to catch big speed runs. Aerial enthusiasts will be disappointed with the lack of opportunities for air but it's still mighty fine...especially for a trail 12 minutes from downtown Dallas. I have ridden a lot of trails in north America and although far too small and monotypic to rank way up there, this one gets the local ease of access, technically challenging and general coolness nod.

Review: This trail is 8 miles now and consists of Loops 1 thru 6 and 6.5(techical section). There are bypasses for the TTFs. Please contact trail steward for trail condition open/ closed. Please DONT RIDE MUDDY TRAILS in Dallas area, this hurts the trails with the soil here and hurts the relationship with property owners who allow us to use the trails. All trails are maintained by volunteers. This is a very popular trail and has been part of the dorba race series. enjoy.

Review: OCNP was a lot more fun than I had expected. Not knowing that there was some nice Technical sections, I got quite a few unexpected surprises on loops 4,5, and 6 I believe. Keep an eye out for the A-Frames over fallen trees. They have to be close to 4 ft. high with a 220 degree apex. They aren't really tough, they just get in your head if you aren't ready for it. Lots of nice little downhill launchers spread out amongst the course along with some more than decent short uphill challenges. There's even a section labeled "Technical Section" which I haven't explored yet. Quite a few of the open field sections have a nice 3-4 foot drop before heading back into the trees, so keep up some speed and enjoy. Even in the heat of the day, the sections closer to the creek are fairly cool. It is also nice how many of the trails meet up in central locations allowing you to tailor your riding experience by selecting which loops to run or repeat. I'll definitely become a regular here.

Review: This singletrack is rockin! There are some pretty challenging sections, but the whole thing spells F. U. N!!
