The dirt terrain is relatively smooth with small hills to travel up and down. Some areas have roots and rocks to dodge, adding to the fun. If you take the same route we took and bike the mile trail through the trees to Mt. Bike Park, you'll find some more challenging trails with hairpin turns, that are advised for more advanced riders.
One of many sign posts leading you around the park; this is about as bumpy as the trails get
The Paradise Lake Conservation Area is set-up for hiking as well--the forest is lovely, but be aware there isn't any destination to hike to. If you are looking for a great walk or jog through the woods, this is the place for you.
The park's map full of 13 miles worth of trails
Things to Know:
- Great park for beginner/advanced mountain bikers, horseback riders, and joggers
- There are over 13 miles of trails
- Parking is free
- 2 horse trailer parking spaces in parking lot
- Dogs on leash are allowed on trails
- Porta Potty located before trail head
- This is best as a dry day activity (mountain biking isn't as much fun on a rainy day)
Directions:
Take highway 522 east toward Monroe.
Turn right onto Paradise Lake Road at the stop light.
Drive 1.9 miles to the parking lot and turn right.
(There is a sign marked "Trailhead and Parking" just before the parking lot to give you a heads up.)
Have a great time on the trails!
