“The lowest altitude access to Joaquin Miller, and some nice low bank turns in the bargain. ”

Description

Bishops Walk provides the lowest elevation, legal access to the singletrack playground in Joaquin Miller Park. It has some switchbacks that are banked turns, with the banks appearing to result mostly from use but with perhaps a bit of engineering. While it looks steep to climb from the profile, somehow it is not as hard as it looks. Of course it's more fun to come down.
