Summary:
Reinhardt is an excellent ride. You can make whatever you want out of the trail system. It takes a little getting used to the ins and outs of the trails but once you have it in your head you can mix it up for just about any kind of ride you like. Your typical start takes you down the gravel road adjacent to the map / sign-in area and then immediately up until it levels off at which point it gives you various access points to the different trails. All the trails lead down and there is no way to finish the ride but to come back up and out. Some of your single track downhills have angled boards to give you the opportunity for a little air as you are barreling down hill. There is also a lot of tight and twisty stuff as well as some short abrupt dips. A narrow path along the pond is a fun challenge. Several long climbs populate this system of trails some of which are pretty steep. This place is a mess even a couple of days after a good rain. No one should be on the trail when it is wet anyway.

Recommended Route:
This trail is well marked in some places and you can always take a map with you to figure out the rest. They rank it as intermediate and advanced so follow according to where you think you fall. I don't pay much attention to it any more now that I have a pretty good sense of the general layout. I just mix it up. There is a long steep up hill on the back side of the advanced trail - let's just say that it is much more fun to go down than it is to go up.

For a similar ride I recommend Boling Park in Canton. Blanket's Creek at Sixes is close but different in that the Intermediate section allows you to use momentum in your favor carrying you up most of the rises you encounter in the trail. Boling and Reinhardt don't give you that; downhill is usually followed by uphill where you cannot make use of your momentum.
