Mountain Biking I.C. Rail Trail

****   Add a review
#28 of 128 mountain bike trails in Illinois
#3,218 in the world

The trails consist of mainly hard-pack dirt with some rock and portions of pavement in between the sections. The single-track has a nice mixture of smooth flowing trail and tighter technical terrain. Obstacles include logs, small ravines, slight off camber trail sections, inclines, rollers, small jumps (optional), berms, gravity dips, low clearance, tight tree sections, roots, stumps and some rocks. Some of the obstacles have go-around options. The varied obstacles are the weather and vegetation. The trails are multi-use and are open year round to walkers, hikers, runners and bikers. Bicyclists are asked to ride the trails counter-clockwise (ascending numerical order) while other users are asked to travel in a clockwise (descending numerical order) for visibility and safety. This trail is not open to horses.
