nothing exciting but good when you dont have a lot of time and need to squeeze in some cardio. patches of snow and ice but mostly muddy and no shade. no traction needed. only saw like 4 other groups on a sunday.
i thought this trail was awesome. super flowy and not too many places where you need to come off the bike
Great trail going counter clockwise. A little snow left on the trail.
It was my first Mountain Bike trail, overall I loved it. I went on a Saturday, more mountain Bikers then hikers. Everyone was very courteous when passing, or letting me by. The climbs are not that tough it has a decent mixture of smooth ups and downs. No shade out there.
Well-marked, excellent signage. Beautiful views, trail goes through grasslands and scrub oak groves. Relatively easy elevation gains and descents. Rocky in spots. 32-spot parking lot at the Coachline Road trailhead. Take the 9.5 mile loop or use one or more of the many bypass trails to shorten. Recommend!
This trail is fine, but not really anything to write home about. It would be a super convenient trail system for anyone who lives in the surrounding neighborhoods, but otherwise I don't know that it's really worth a drive. This would make a good beginner-friendly trail running area. It's not too technical. There is no shade.
it was my first time on a substantive trail. I took my hybrid which was clearly unsuitable for this Trail. the trail is challenging but not too hard if you have a mountain bike. The view at the top is beautiful. there are also some places where you can take a bypass, which will get you through, or back to your car, faster. all-in-all all it's great exercise and has good, but not great views.
