great beginner-intermedate trails about 5 miles of tight single track. Not a lot of elevation (nebraska) but plenty of up and downs. watch out for the narrow bridges!

Summary:
This trail is fun, a little bit of everything. Look out for many exposed tree roots. Also in the upper part of the trail, which used to be a landfill, there is metal sticking out. Must be careful not to slash your leg. Also a few parts could send you going over a cliff if you have too much speed and lose control. Great scenic path, mostly in trees which can shield the hot winter sun and strong winds.

Jewel Park, Tranquility, Lake Manawa, Branched Oak Lake

Summary:
Great for training, practice by doing laps and recording times. This trail has al little of everything and flows well.

Recommended Route:
When you enter the trail go right at the first intersection in the woods. After that you might need some help. To many options to describe but once you know the route it is a blast.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Jewel Park

Summary:
This trail is a blast!!! There are some great small downhills, great log crossings, fast bridge crossings (with opportunity for air). Lots of wildlife, a dear just about took my front wheel with it. Not to tough of a trail and rides easy. I would rate the climbing at about a 2 out of 5. Definetly worth riding if you have never been here.

Recommended Route:
Many routes, I rode it clockwise but there are many diffent paths that have you tracking over areas you have already been and so on. Just GO

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Jewell Park

Summary:
Very enjoyable for the beginner to intermediate rider. Area is small, yet packed with plenty of good trails. Plenty of man-made jumps and bridges place a nice twist into your ride. No maps available, and none needed. No need to worry about getting lost.

Recommended Route:
All routes are real good

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Branched Oak State Park

Summary:
It's a ride in the park, not a "Warrior's" ride. A fun afterwork stress buster or quick, convenient weekend ride. Good place to take beginners or family so they can learn and enjoy the ride. If you're looking for intensity, Omaha has other rides to offer. Keep this trail the way it is. Don't build more, don't reduce what is there.

Recommended Route:
It is a bit of a mouse maze. There are arrows to help. Follow them, or better yet, follow a friend who has done it before.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Lewis and Clark for MTB, Keystone for roadies.
