Summary:
There are some really great trails to be found in the Hyde Park woods. Some great singletrack, decent 4 wheeler trails, just plain nice terrain. The trick is, as usual ride with a local. If you are a moderate to advanced skilled xc rider and want to learn them on a small group ride (drink beers too) contact me. We can show you 5 - 30 mile rides.

Recommended Route:
Enter @ Dorsey Lane, head north to water tower. Then get beer. The walk in cooler @ beverage store (on 9) is great in the summer. Hudson views. Maybe spot a hairbag.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Tyrell, Ninham, Vassar
