Trail Overview
The East Fence Trail follows the park’s eastern perimeter, connecting the South Fence Road up toward the North Fence. This is the preferred through-route along the east side, with a mix of open stretches, light tree cover, and fun features along the way.
About ¼ mile north of the South Fence, you’ll encounter a splash hole. At night, it can look like a steep drop-off, but the bottom is solid and the hole is designed with varying depths: the west side is shallower while the east side runs deeper, giving riders options for how hard they want to hit it. It’s a fan favorite for a quick blast.
Roughly ½ mile north of the South Fence sits the Sleeping Tree landmark — nobody quite remembers why it’s called that, but it’s a well-known meeting point and trail marker. Multiple side trails crisscross east to west along this stretch, but the East Fence Road remains the best-maintained and most reliable route.
Difficulty
Intermediate Uneven, rutted dirt trail with loose rocks, sand, erosion, and washes. Potential water crossings up to a foot deep, mud holes, and obstacles up to 18”, including ledges and short, steep grades. Roads are typically one vehicle wide with places to pass.
