Description

The more technical of the trails that loop around Lake Como. The closer you get to Rock Creek the more challenging in becomes with a short steep climb and descent just south of the Rock Creek Bridge.

Usually combined with Lake Como North for a complete loop around the lake. Can be connected with Shannon Ridge or Jenny Ridge for longer rides.

This is a very popular trail in the summer and bikes should avoid the trail during peak times, especially weekends.
