Cross Country Rider Summary: Awesome ride! Recommended from a guy in a London bike shop. Mostly hills of switchedback trails ... intermediate to expert technical. At least 30kms if you do the entire maze... and a maze it is as I got lost which sucked. The northern top half of the trail is marked well enough but finding your way back to the Snyder / Yellow Barn entrance through the southern bottom half will prove to be challenging. However, do it! A really great ride ... just bring some bread crumbs, bug spray and a compass ;) Recommended Route: The local who saved my bonked, sorry *&^ (many thanks dude) suggested new riders use Glascow Street as it's better marked. Someone could bother to mark the Snyder entrance from within the trail system so you can find your way out? Other recommended trails in the same area: still exploring area :)

, from Kitchener Summary: Out again last night, and found some more new stuff. There definitely seems to be some organized trail development happening out there. I finally found the MAJOR berms in the natural halfpipe section towards the Highland Rd trailhead. Now I'll need to go back during daylight hours. Overall, this whole area is getting better and better. Recommended Route: I live nearby so I head in from old Glasgow along the fenceline. Other recommended trails in the same area: the whole Hydro-Cut network

Reviewed by: Durango
, from Kitchener Summary: In response to the question by "%" If you enter from the Highland Road route (past Trussler Rd, right at yellow barn/gravel pit entrance) there is a sign stating that at least that section of the forest is an "Agreement Forest", therefore crown land. The bike traffic has diminished since the obstacle tear-down, but some new single-track trails are being developed. Look for signs for "Frankenstein"; great tight switchbacks and tight technical short downhill sections. great tree cover for this brutally humid summer we've been having. this trail system was definitely worth a 5 for this area, however has dropped to a 3 since the teardown. still an awesome workout! Recommended Route: Old Glasgow St. near T-intersection of University Other recommended trails in the same area: Chicopee, Homer Watson

, from waterloo, ontario Summary: Does anyone know who owns the land on either side of the hydrolines? That is, are we allowed to be there? Is there some way to ensure that these trails will not succumb to urban sprawl, dump expansion, fallen trees, etc.? It seems that by taking for granted that we mountain bikers can use this trail we may be making ourselves unwelcome; we may be threatening our own existence. Any comments would be helpful....
Recommended Route: as above
