Description: Stillwell is not too technical but does have some tricky places. There are a few black diamond alternate routes on the back side that are fun. The climbs are short but moderately steep with a good deal of sand to they can be tough if you're not in the right gear. Stillwell links up to the Nassau-Suffolk Greenbelt trail to the south. The greenbelt is an easier trail, but it's good to add a little distance onto your ride after doing a loop of Stillwell. also, check out more Long Island trails info on the C.L.I.M.B. web site. www.climbonline.org

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

This trail has some tough short hills with sand and gravel which can stall you at times. There is a very easy main loop with various trails that branch out all over the place. Lot of fun and a fast ride. Some technical areas and even a few black diamonds. Lost my way once so be careful if you zone out on your rides.

Short but b*** kicking. What it lacks in distance it makes up for in short steap climbs. Nice technical ride. Never really gives you a break till your done!

Intermediate to advanced single track...This trail will kick your butt...One of the most technical singletracks in the area

A great Strong Island ride. There is a main outer loop, and a pretty good network of singletrack that fills the center of the loop. Alot of ups and downs keep you on your toes. Most trails are pretty dry, but it does get a little sandy down next to the railroad tracks. Head under the tracks for a good switch-back climb and a few more nice trails, though.
