Description: http://www.icorrmtb.org The website does a good job at describing the trail and offers maps. There are plenty of log hops and switchbacks to make this a good place to ride. The roots in the pine section can be painfull on the backside, so be prepared. You can easily ride the entire system without being too worn out. Just pick a starting point and go,.

Great trail system! No equestrians allowed so no worries about horse poo! Trails for beginners to advanced riders. 201 is my favorite!

Awesome trail system. I've been going for the last 3 years and haven't gotten tired of it yet. The trails are slightly modified every year to keep you coming back for more. Trail difficulties for every skill level. Great spot located on the lake along with camping grounds. Give it a try and you won't regret it!

Great trails! I rode it a lot when I lived in Cedar Rapids.

Awesome technical singletrack system where no one would expect it. These trails single-handedly fueled my biking fix for 7 years while liviing in Iowa. Hard to match even in CO or CA.

Great trail. Great area. This is a place most wouldn't expect to find in Iowa. Sugarbottom has trails for all ability levels, with enough diversity to keep riders coming back.

These trails are awesome. They are very well kept up. Fines are issued if anyone is on the trails when they are closed. There is a race held every August. The trails are near 12 miles long with different sections for beginners, intermediates, and experienced riders. Several technical sections with some really good climbs.

This is a great trail system, well maintained, well sign posted. I've biked in CO and this ranks up there with some of the best trails ever. I've been riding out here since 1999, and I have yet to get bored!!! The trails are marked green/blue/black diamond and double black diamond. There is absolutely something for everyone out here, I've even taken my kids (ages 10 & 12) on some of the trails, and know the hard core riders love it as well. Well worth the look - check out http://www.icorrmtb.org for more info about the trails.

This is a great singletrack park for Iowa!! A couple of times I forgot where I was. It is mostly dirt with quick uphills and fast decents. Any level of riders can enjoy this park and the trails are well marked for level of difficulty. Watch for deer on the trail and call the hotline to make sure it's open, the park is closed if it has rained. (319-626-1160)
