Description
Trailhead is located at the Summit County Road facility just past the recycling center on the north side of SCR 450 (Huron Road)approximately 1/4 mile from the 7-Eleven. There is no parking at the trailhead. Park at the Breckenridge Recreation Center, or somewhere else in Town. The trail initially climbs steeply from the road grade to the flume, then flattens for a cruisy, fun singletrack. At mile 0.7, the trail crosses Highlands Drive and continues directly across the road. At mile 1.2 the trail again comes to Highlands Drive. Continue north (downhill) on Highlands Drive approximately 400' and look for the trail on the right. The Mike's Trail intersection will be on the right, the Lower Flume Trail crosses Highlands Drive again and continues north another 1/4 mile to the terminus in Silver Shekel Subdivision.
