Manitou Trail

Trail Overview

The Manitou trail is a well-maintained single-lane gravel road that winds steadily through forested terrain. It features gentle ascents and descents, with a few minor potholes scattered along the route, but overall provides a smooth and easy ride. This trail connects to the Prospectors Trail and is frequented by local riders, so it's worth staying alert for oncoming traffic, especially around bends and narrow stretches. Along the way, several small clearings could serve as pull-offs or short breaks, though they are not suitable for camping. A handful of spur trails branch off from the main route; some remain open and navigable, while others are heavily overgrown and difficult to access. While the trail offers a pleasant drive through the forest, it lacks any formal or informal camping areas and provides no services such as drinking water, trash disposal, or restrooms. Cell phone reception may be limited or unavailable depending on location.
