Description: The first couple of miles seem pretty dull, but once you think you are at the end (by the highway), there is are a couple of openings in the fence to gain access to some camp area out there (I think owned by the Boy Scouts). Go through that fence, and that's where the trail starts to get fun. Then the trial starts to have alot of switchbacks and tight cuts through trees. Make sure to watch your arms and your head in those trees, they reach out and touch you pretty easy.

We live in Shreveport, but have family in Wichita, so while visiting we brought our bikes and rode the trail. This is a GREAT trail! Anyone can ride, however the faster you go the more fun it will be! The track is very well kept up! Credit to the builders! This is a must ride! You will really enjoy it!!

Great trail! Enjoyed it several times when I was TDY there for 6 weeks. Kudos to the builder!

**Update** I completely agree with the 24 hour race idea. I would love to come back here in addition to HHH to hit a 24hr...perfect trail design for it.

this trail is amazing. lots of technical turns and quick climbs. the single speed video is actually me and i am not the one who put it on here. but as u can see the trail is sik. it is hard enough to be fun but easy enough that newer riders arent intimadated. the scenery is also very good. if your trough wichita fall tx stop by. need to have a 24 hour race

This Trail was a lot of fun...The faster you go the the more fun you'll have...and like DLACHNIET said,I think I about ran over the same rabbit 4 times myself!!

One thing that I forgot to mention on my previous review. If you start at the Texoma Cycling Center then follow the trail to the RV park, keep going and follow the arrows. They will lead you to Camp Filler and some fairly nice obstacles.

No long climbs, or even short ones. No big jumps or super technical sections. Everything else is there. What it is FUN, especially at night with good lights. Looked at my GPS track, and realised I did almost run over the same rabbit 4 times. Lot of trail in a small area.* Review edited 2/19/2011 Got to ride in the daylight; it's a blast.

This trail has something for everyone. It ranges from simple wide even trails to some very difficult obstacles. The trails are very well marked and clean. The Texoma Cycling Center has some great people there and are very willing to help.

This is a technical trail with several drops and several built up catwalks, bridges, platforms, barns, industrial pipes, and lots of hard pack. Not many climbs other than short hills.

It is fast right now because it rained a couple of weeks ago and it is all dried up. Be careful of the leaves. It is awefully slick out there. I busted and put the ole Giant into a tree today.

Just got through riding it today for the first time. Not bad. Pretty tight in sections and fast hard-pack. Not much sand which is nice. Good trail for Wichita Falls. Builders did a good job with creativity.

Pretty good trail. There are some great switches, few jumps, plenty of tight riding areas. They really have packed a lot of fun into this area! Best in town from what I understand.

This is a fun trail. Ran across it as an alternative when the Bar-H Ranch was closed for hunting. Totally did not expect this much trail in such a compact area. Cheers to the builders for imagination. Some technical stuff and very fast paced. Nice people on the trail!
Similar Trail: Clear Bay at Lake Thunderbird in Norman, Ok.
