Mostly Single track, some sand, and a few short climbs. Short but fun, with little chance of getting lost. An interesting 1-2 hour ride.

Summary:
This is the first "real" trail I've ridden. Its fun for beginners. Mostly easy riding singletrack but certainly some challenges along the way. There are quite a few spots that are sandy but they dont bother me, fishtailing keeps me focused. I'm sure guys who know their way around there can avoid them. So far I've been there twice and haven't really figured out a loop yet but you can't get lost out there. You are either near the park, the school, or 42. My most recent trip I ran into a few different people who were all pretty cool. One guy who was just arriving as I was leaving offered some advice and was about to show another couple who had just showed up a loop.

As other reviewers have suggested this trail seems to drain very well. The first time I went out it had rained the previous night into the morning and it was fine. I also parked in the GC parking lot 7 rather then the college side. I'm not clear if you are aloud to park in the college lots or not, and if so, which one?

All in all I loved it and will be going back regularly. There were people out there but certainly not crowded and everyone out there was on a bike. I didn't not see anyone walking or with a dog. Also did not encounter any glass or dog crap. Some deer though.

Recommended Route:
Couldn't really tell you. I'm sure there is a loop or two I just haven't figured it out yet. That being said just go ride and you will be able to find your way back to your car.

None yet. I rode Kressen the other day but for me its the same distance to CCC and I'd much rather ride CCC. Next up will be GCC

Summary:
CCC has a nice trail system that is great for beginner/intermediate riders. 2 new trails were added this winter with new sections added to 2 additional trails. Some short, steep climbs and decents. Has a few sandy spots, but once you know you're way around you can avoid most of it. The place drains exceptionally well after rain, can almost always be ridden the next day.

Recommended Route:
Park in the township park (not on the college side), park in lot #7 the trailhead is right there. Drop in, go left and ride the trails in the pack. You can easily get 7 miles in with minimal repeats.

Summary:
I am able to scavenge for wood and construction sites out of dumpsters and make northshore style obstacles, bridges and jumps, when I have time, looking for some help to beef up, Camden County College track. I've run crosscountry back there for 8 years. I know every trail. Could make it a lot better. Let me know how I can help or if you can help me. It has a lot of hidden little secrets that might surprise you.

Recommended Route:
Park in the CYO by the basketball court. Head back through till you get to the giant sand pit some jumps there. The woods are muddy when it rains. Head over to the college side and take the big loop towards 42. 3 quarters of the way around, look for a turn off single track, it runs down and up a big climb.

Summary:
Camden County is an underated place. Its by no means world class, but this place has some pretty fun/challenging single-track. As everybody notes, there are no long climbs/descents here, but some short steep ones. There are, though, some tight/flowing single track sections. We are adding more singletrack here and are working on making a pretty good loop. This place is not a killer, but is turning into a real nice winter traning place. Have Fun.

Recommended Route:
Everyone usually starts by grabbing the first singletrack on the left and after that there are a million different ways to go. I suggest the Dark Green route partly because I marked it but I think it flows the best. Have Fun.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Gloucester County, Cerius Park

Summary:
Great ride on One Wheel! That's correct! I'm a unicyclist I read all the great reviews from Kirk, Dave and the others, so I decided to give it a try. I have a ATB tire on my 24" Uni, which you need on these trails. I'm just getting into Muni(mountain unicyling)and this is a great course for the beginner like me. If you want more of a challenge/workout on this course, try it with a Uni. You'll love it. See you on the trails!

Recommended Route:
Behind CIM building at Camden County College. Enter at the woods edge.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Berlin Park in Berlin,NJ
