Overview

This loop uses two trails that overlap. The Green Trail is about 0.75 miles, and the Blue Trail is three miles start-to-finish.

Description

The Blue Trail starts on the Green Trail, turns off and winds back and across sections of the Green. The Green Trail is an easy warm-up with a few ups and downs and roots; beware of people walking their dogs later in the mornings.

The Blue Trail has more roots and really has some technical sections to corner and climb short distances. There are also a few well-made boardwalk obstacles and jumps as you can see in the pictures.

A nicely built, self-resetting teeter-totter makes for loads of fun!

At this point, either jump over the tree or roll it at a slower speed onto a boardwalk landing.

A little speed will help you get up and over this obstacle.

The Blue and Green trail markers are very clear and easy to follow. One marker was down near the end of a Blue section.

Some roots occasionally crop up along the otherwise well-groomed trail.

This is the second of the main gates. If you park at the fire station, this gate is the closer of the two. Both face the main road on this side of the trail.
