Description
These trails have something for everyone. There is a main access road that has numerous offshoots. Some for beginners and some for the seasoned technical rider, and a little of everything in between. The Cleveland Area Mountain Bike Assoc. (CAMBA) has done a fantastic job of building up these trails and is just beginning to tap into the parks unlimited potential. Check out their website at camba.us, or just come out and ride!!!!!!!

Review: Great trails, nice mix of single track with tight rooty sections and few rock gardens thrown in. Great ride.

Review: Like others have said, the lake side has more flow. Side to south of cableline rd is a couple miles of rock garden. From the lot head down the shared path to the road, hang a sharp left and another left onto the singletrack like 50ft later. I usually ride the lakeside out and back because I'm pressed for time, if I am lucky I will come back to the lot and ride the other part about halfway out and back, really isn't my kind of riding on the other side, but as close as we've got to Akron.

Review: Didn't get to play around a whole lot. Just picked one trail at random on the lake side and followed it through for about 3 miles back to the main path. Lots of roots and swift descents. Quite the trial on my walmart bike

Review: Its gotten really rooted or (rootty) over the years and popular ! But a fast, fun, and maintained trail thx to CAMBA. Best part of the trail- ? "the machine" Makes me giggle! Its also got a sweet part were you dip down and ride through a stream ! They have marked the trail quite well! Expert, advanced, And this trail is always getting better! KUDO'S Camba

Review: Trail can basically be divided into two sections, the lake side trails are, tight, twisty, rooty, with a few flow sections. The trails to the south of Cableline road are tight, twisty, rocky, with some very interesting features. My first lap around was quite frustrating, bike hit a tree, one endo, and enough dabs and undignified get offs to last a few months. The second lap I really enjoyed as I had learned where most of the tricky spots were, and there are a lot. The new for 2011 Quarry Trail is a must ride for those who like to play in the rocks. 2 1/2 miles of technical fun.

Review: First section of the trail...HOLY ROCK GARDEN! I had no idea the first two miles of the trail is almost exclusively all rock garden. I've never cursed so much while riding in my life. The second half of the trail was more my thing, great flow, trail conforms nicely to the contours, some pretty good scenery around the water. If you're new to biking, do yourself a favor and skip the first section of the frustrating 2 mile rock garden.

Review: I'm a very new beginner but my boyfriend has been riding forever. He adored this trail but I fell so many times over the roots and rocks that I finally said forget it and swung off the trail early. The trail is swift and narrow and LORD the roots are trecherous to a novice like me and the downgrades are pretty swift. The BF loved it said it was so well built and he can't wait to keep riding it again. He raved about the rock gardens and bridges and a great cement brick line. As I took my bruised b*** off the single track, I found the great doubletrack that was more my speed. It's got roots, rocks and so forth but more cushion with leaves and dirt. The whole system is well loved though, you can tell the cleveland mt bikers have done a really nice job in making it interesting. Seems like a great system for the whole family if you find the right tracks for your skill level.

Review: Some really good trails a little bit of everything for any level rider. Being maintained by CAMBA and it looks great. Do a section after work or take a afternoon and ride it all if you can.
