Description
A few zig-zags and a couple sharp turns make an interesting hike through the forest even more so. Since this is a bike trail, keep an eye out for sharp and sudden hills and drops. Hike the trail clockwise in order to keep an eye out for oncoming cyclists going the opposite direction. Signs at the trailhead make it clear which way is correct, based on whether you're biking or on foot.
