Description

You can ride either way on the Spring Brook Loop - either way you'll encounter great views over the plains to the Flatirons, then some fun twisty bits through the woods. We prefer to ride clockwise, which may provide a bit more fun on the twisty bits through the trees halfway around the loop.

Climb up a rocky singletrack that's not too steep, but may challenge less advanced riders in places. The trail works its way into the trees and the trail will get twisty and more deeply wooded as you continue on. At the halfway point, you'll arrive at a marked intersection. Stay straight to complete the loop (Spring Brook Loop North).

Entertaining climb. Feels like real mountain biking. Catch without crowds and you feel more remote than you actually are.
