Description

Fun trail. Deep in the woods single track, good obstacles, lots of jumps. First part of trail has lots of thorn trees so you usually always end up with a flat tire. Bring extra tubes.

Rat trail is a hard trail. The hill climbs are pretty impossible in some places. There are some really good opportunities for jumps, if you're not chicken like me, and you would probably like some of the downhills too, again if you're not chicken like I am. It's probably a 5 to 7 mile trail, hard to say, and then connects to Fox trail if you want to continue your ride, or you can choose to ride out. I really love riding here. I don't ride Rat trail alone, too many things could go wrong. But Fox trail is fine to ride alone. Bottom line is, it's always a fun ride!
