I love the river crossings and forest on this trail. The trail itself is OK with a few armored sections and some rooty bits spicing up an otherwise average trail.
| Thanklittle bit for everyone here. there are some very technical climbs because of the roots but can be walked easily. this seems to be the go to loop in Dupont. great views. great decents. loved it
| ThankNo bridges, but a fast water crossing and a steep rock face and a couple other technical features make this a wee bit more than a beginers trail.
| ThankThis trail is basically two different animals. The stretch from the parking area to the creek crossing is nice and easy - sandy doubletrack winding through the forest. After the creek crossing, the trail turns to true singletrack with some rocky advanced sections as it continues on to Bridal Veil Falls. This is a critical connector to some of the best loops in Dupont, so get to know it.
| ThankAs I mentioned above, this section of trail really isn't very noteworthy on its own, but is in an integral part of a fantastic loop! Basically, this is a gateway trail to other, much better trails. But if you're a beginner, this could be a good introduction to mountain biking.
