Trail Description:

Each of the Mountain Bike Trails are approximately 7 miles of mostly tight single-track, some open fields, and a few creek-crossings. Dirt is hard-pack with some soft ground; it rides well after rain. No large hills, but LOTS of small hills. Overall, a pretty fast course.

SE - Southeast Trail: This is the trail where the past McMurtry March Madness MTB races have been. Trail starts at the pavilion on the East Side. The cattle gaurds will be in place today, so be careful crossing them. Get to this trail by driving west on McMurtry Road and turning left when you get to the park.

NE - Northeast Trail: The newest trail is fast between some really technical sections. The trailhead is north of the SE Trail and is an easy ride on the pavement to get there.

SW - Southwest Trail: Two ways to get to this trail is three miles north of SH-51 on Redlands Road, left 1 mile west, and through the park to the parking areas. OR. Four miles north of SH-51 on SH-86, east five miles on Bronco Road to the park.

NW - Northwest Trail: The most scenic of the four trails with several views of the lake. Portions of this trail really ROCKS! (Hint). NW Trail has the most variety with some two lane gravel section road, fast grass trails, winding trails through woodlands, some tricky up and downs near the creeks, and a rock pile or two your'e gonna like.

The course is available to pre-ride anytime... just pay the fee and enjoy the ride
