Main Access Trail


The Multi User Access Trail is what links all the Bike Park areas together and provides a trail for people to bike/walk/jog and check the place out.






Skills Area 

The skills area was designed with lots of options and progression for all abilities. Rider of all skill levels can session the skill area
for hours trying new lines. It's a safe and controlled place to try new features and work on balance.

Dirt Jumps

The Dirt Jumps were designed to safe by using "table top" jumps instead of regular "gap" dirt jumps. This style of jump
allows for good progression because, if you short the landing you still can ride it out. There are 4 sizes 2, 3, 4 and 5 feet tall with
3 sets each and a berm to slow and turn you around at the end.

Drop Zone

The Drop Zone has 3 drops on the upper slope leading to 4 different drops on lower slope. The progression levels
are very good on these drops. Once you get used to the speed and feel of the smaller drops you can try a little bit bigger one.

Progression Trail aka. Business Time


The Progression Trail was designed as the next step from the Skill Area. It has similar features but located on
a single track trail. It's a good little trail for learning to ride features with more flow and speed.





Flow Master

The Flow Trail is all about flow when you ride it. It has lots of berms and it teaches you how to corner and carry your speed.
It's a fun trail to session to get faster on your bike.
