High Hill Bike and Run Trail

Serving both mountain bikers and runners, this trail is single-direction loop with the direction dependent on the day of the week. A real hidden gem tucked into a small package, the terrain provides a change from moderately rooted forest path to hard packed soil to loose sand depending on the recent rain. Features a wonderful canopy of hardwoods as well as a circumnavigation of a small creek fed pond. There are no extended climbs or descents making it a very friendly trail for all level of runners, but the near constant ups and downs also provide a ton of fast, quick descents and climbs just high enough to really push the pace for those craving a higher intensity run. The trail also features a branch-off known as "The Extender" (Extension Loop) that allows you to repeat a section of the trail for some added distance and contains the most fun and technical section of ups and downs with a well-rutted path of unsure footing. There are several switchbacks, tight sections, and a higher degree of technical running that you would expect to find in the area if you're willing to push it. The trail has recently been modified slightly to accommodate a nearby construction project which has resulted in the addition of about a half mile of trail. All in all, this near 4-mile trail can provide a fun/challenging run to every level runner.
