This is a natural, non‑paved trail system designed specifically for mountain biking. The trail winds through a mix of prairie grassland, scrub brush, wooded sections, and lakeshore terrain, with subtle elevation changes that create unique views of the lake and surrounding native landscape. The current trail offers more than five miles of fast, flowy single‑track hard‑pack dirt, with occasional rock features and a few larger hill drops. 🏆 About Tour de Dirt Tour de Dirt is a nonprofit mountain bike race series run by racers for racers, celebrating Dirt.
