Mountain Biking Canoe Launch

*****   Add a review
#55 of 90 mountain bike trails in Kansas
#8,043 in the world

This trail is mostly flat and bidirectional. There are a few dips, humps and high banked turns to keep this trail fun. Very beginner friendly. Lots of windy trail , tight trees and ride along the Arkansas River. Really fun trail to just cruise and relax.
