Description: This trail is sweet. Start out by going up the steps on the section 16 trail. Go almost a mile to the start of the Intemann Nature Trail (on the right). No long climbs here but a good technical test broken up with gradually sloping singletrack. Kinda reminds me of Palmer Park but all spread out and with more scenery. Lots of other trails in the area to explore.

Not great as a stand-alone, but pretty good as an extension to ther rides, especially Section 16 and Red Rock Canyon Park. There are some highly technical spots--not for the unskilled, but nothing heart-stopping.

Sweet singletrack. Sme sections you can get flying. There is not alot of traffic here, manly other bikers. Some sections are steep and loose rocks. I like it because it connects to many other trails( Red Rock Canyon, Section 16, etc.). Someday maybe i will try the whole trail(67 miles)!

Great Trail! The trail has a good mix of up/down hill and some good technical spots. I had to walk the bike over a few parts, but all in all I thought the trail was great! Make sure to stop and enjoy the great views. View more at http://www.shhlacker.com/path.php?pathid=27

This trail can be interesting if you have grown bored with the other trails around town, but all-in-all I wouldn't recommend it. It really is made for hiking (lots of steeps, ruts, and steps). It is also very short. It is no big commitment to ride it so give it a try, especially if you happen to be in the new Red Rocks Canyon riding park, otherwise, save it for when you just feel like doing some exploring.

I like Entemman a lot mainly because it's not too crowded although on the weekends it tends to have a lot of hikers. This trail has lots to like: XC with rolling ups and downs, areas of tight, wooded singletrack, some stiff climbs and some nice technical downhill to make it all worth it. It's fun to bike year round although fall and spring are best when it's not so hot. I've even biked it on New Year's Day and had a very pleasant experience. It's a very good overall ride.
