This figure-eight loop climbs and descends dirt roads and mostly single track for a great ride just outside of town. There are many options for adding additional spur loops or bailing out early during the ride.  

LOCAL TIP: Use COTREX, a mobile and desktop application for a statewide comprehensive and interactive trail map, to find the perfect trails and stay up-to-date on any closures. Stop by the Winter Park Information Center in downtown Winter Park for hard-copy maps and additional information or details on road closures and trail work.
