The little rainbow trail runs about 3 miles one-way up from the upper parking lot for the Methodist Mountain Trail System near the beginning of the Little Rainbow Trail (NOT the Methodist Mountain trailhead high up on the actual Rainbow Trail) until it dead ends on 4x4 road 5668B.
This singletrack is a fantastic piece of trail that swoops down into dips, flies along hillsides, gets serious exposure on top of knobs, and climbs up the side of the mountain. In short, this trail is rocking!
Right now, unless you want to ride a lot of 4x4 road (which would connect you with the official Rainbow Trail), this segment is best ridden as an out-and-back (for a total of a little under 6 miles), but it is a fantastic out-and-back at that!
