Bike Trail #1

Shaded Trail is great. The woods have a variety of birds, but you may only hear their songs. Today I heard Indigo Buntings, Red-eyed Vireos, Northern Cardinals, House Sparrows and even a Red-Shouldered Hawk.

I followed Google directions and it took me to a road that entered private property to get to this trail. They obviously had others who tried to follow these directions as it was all over their property entrance to not trespass and that it was private property. Maybe the trail is excellent, but don’t use “Bile Trail #1” driving directions!! Never did find the trail.

This is a really nice trail. It's about 2 1/2 miles from Truman School to the trail head at Lost Valley Park. It's about another mile to go from there on to the end of the trail at the west end. If the river is dry its fun to walk in the creek bed to check all the rock formations and bluffs UPDATE: Since I wrote the original review, the trail has been opened up to go further west. You can now go on a paved trail all the way to the west side of Highway 13 and from there can connect to the trail that goes to Ritter Springs Park.

This beautiful trail has it all. Shade, with periods of sunlight. A peaceful river flowing close by. Caves just off the trail. And not to mention, it is well maintained! Not too busy, but its also an easy-enough trail for children or the beginners. Would highly recommend!
